Javert’s Arrival (Javert, Enjolras)
~ Song
Annotation
where this begins and "Upon These Stones (At the Barricade)" ends is a little unclear, with this portion containing the exchange between the Army Officer and the Students (prior to Javert's actual arrival) sometimes found in one recording and sometimes the other:
Army Officer: (offstage)
You at the barricade listen to this!
No one is coming to help you to fight
You're on your own
You have no friends
Give up your guns - or die!
Enjolras:
Damn their warnings, damn their lies
They will see the people rise!
Students:
Damn their warnings, damn their lies
They will see the people rise!
