Army Officer [from beyond the barricade] |
|
You at the barricade listen to this |
|
The people of Paris sleep in their beds |
|
You have no chance |
|
No chance at all |
|
Why throw your lives away? |
|
Enjolras |
|
Let us die facing our foes |
|
Make them bleed while we can |
|
Combeferre |
|
Make 'em pay through the nose |
|
Courfeyrac |
|
Make 'em pay for every man! |
|
Enjolras |
|
Let others rise |
|
To take our place |
|
Until the earth is free! |

[Amidst increasingly heavy gunfire, Marius is shot. Enjolras is killed at the summit of the barricade. All at the barricade are killed, except Marius, who is wounded and unconscious, and Valjean. Valjean discovers that Marius is still alive and carries him down into the sewers to escape. Javert climbs over the barricade looking for Valjean's body. Not finding it, he realizes that Valjean must be in the sewers, so he goes off to where he must emerge.] |
