Freedom is mine.The Earth is still.I feel the wind.I breath again.And the sky clears the world is waking. Drink from the pool.How clean the taste.Never forget the years the waste! Nor forgive them for what they've done they are the guilty everyone. The day begins...and now lets see what this new world can do for me
FARMER
You'll have to go. I'll pay you off for the day collect you bits and pieces there and be on your way
VALJEAN
You have given me half what the other men get this handful of tin wouldn't buy my sweat!
LABOURER
You broke the law it's there for people to see why should you get the same as honest men like me?
VALJEAN
Now every door is closed to me another jail anther key another chain. For when I come to any town they check my papers and they find the mark of Cain. In their eyes I see their fear "we do not want you here!"
INNKEEPER'S WIFE
My rooms are full and I've no supper to spare we'd like to help a stranger all we want is to be fair
VALJEAN
I will pay in advance I can sleep in a barn you see how dark it is? I'm not some kind of dog!
INNKEEPER
You'll leave my house! Or feel the weight of my rod! We're law abidding people here thanx be to God.
VALJEAN
And now I know how freedom feels the jailer always at your heels it is the law!This piece of paper in my hand that makes me cursed through out the land it is th law! Like a cur I walk the street the dirt beneath their feet...
BISHOP
Come in, sir for you are weary, and the night is cold out there. Though our lives are very humble what we have we have to share. There is wine here to revive you, there is bread to make you strong. There's a bed to rest 'till morning rest from pain and rest from wrong.
VALJEAN
He let me eat my fill I had the lion's share. This silver in my hand was twice what I had earned in all thoese 19 years-a life time of despair and yet he trusted me. The old fool he trusted me-he'd done his bitof good- I played the greatful serf and thanked him like I should but when the house was still I got up in the night took the silver, took my flight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
