Lyrics by：Montagu Slater/George Crabbe

Composed by：Benjamin Britten

Now is gossip put on trial

Now the rumours either fail

Or are shouted in the wind

Sweeping furious through the land

Now the liars shiver for

Now if they've cheated we shall know

We shall strike and strike to kill

At the slander or the sin

Now the whisperers stand out

Now confronted by the fact

Bring the branding iron and knife

What's done now is done for life
