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.]
