“The good Grand Duke of Pfennig Halbpfennig,
Though, in his own opinion, very very big,
In point of fact he’s nothing but a miserable prig
Is the good Grand Duke of Pfennig Halbpfennig!”

—The Chamberlain's Chorus
The Grand Duke

“Give thanks, give thanks to wayward fate by mystic fortune’s sway,
Our Ludwig guides the helm of State for one delightful day!
We hail you, sir! We greet you, sir!
Regale you, sir! We treat you, sir!
Our ruler he by fate’s decree for one delightful day!”
