A Letter From Cecile (SMASH Cast Version) - SMASH Cast/Megan Hilty[00:00:00]
"Dear Sophie [00:00:06]
At the convent of St Ursuline[00:00:08]
Under lock and key we always felt secure[00:00:13]
We were taught that Heaven is divine[00:00:16]
And all who enter it are innocent and pure[00:00:20]
And inside those medieval walls[00:00:24]
We had no reason to believe it wasn′t true[00:00:29]
But it′s hard to stay strong when one leaves those holy halls[00:00:32]
And Sophie that is why I′m writing this to you[00:00:36]
For there′s this man you see[00:00:42]
This man Vicomte Valmont[00:00:44]
A second cousin to the cousin of my mother[00:00:45]
Who would look at me[00:00:49]
As he played faro with my aunt[00:00:51]
And he wasn′t looking at me like a brother[00:00:52]
He is with us in Deauville[00:00:56]
As my dear mama prepares[00:00:58]
For my marriage she′s brokered and arranged[00:01:00]
But last night as I lay still[00:01:02]
I heard him coming up the stairs[00:01:05]
And now Sophie I am permanently changed [00:01:10]
He arrived just past eleven [00:01:12]
Saying we would fly to Heaven[00:01:18]
And before the night was over he was right[00:01:19]
Now nuns say Heaven′s for the strong[00:01:22]
But I′m afraid he′s proved them wrong[00:01:25]
And he′s bringing Heaven back tomorrow night"[00:01:28]
Madame Volanges:[00:01:32]
Cecile what′s that racket I don′t hear your lesson what are you doing in there [00:01:33]
Cecile:[00:01:38]
Oh oh yes Mama I′m working out a very hard passage [00:01:38]
"At the convent of St Ursuline[00:01:45]
We were sheltered from the evil ways of men[00:01:49]
We were warned that they would pour your wine[00:01:53]
And could seduce you with just paper and a pen[00:01:57]
And beneath the chapel and its dome[00:02:00]
We had no reason to believe the nuns would lie[00:02:05]
But if Heaven′s what I felt upstairs in Madame Rosemonde′s home[00:02:09]
Well then Sophie I am not afraid to die[00:02:14]
But there′s this man you see[00:02:19]
Monsieur Gercourt′s his name[00:02:21]
And he′s expecting a young wife who is intact[00:02:22]
How enraged he′ll be[00:02:26]
When he learns of Valmont′s game[00:02:27]
For now he will not be the first and that′s a fact[00:02:29]
And if that were not enough[00:02:33]
Love and music stole my heart[00:02:34]
When my tutor Danceny made my harp sing[00:02:35]
But our future′s looking rough[00:02:38]
And our young love may come apart[00:02:43]
Since Valmont exposed my harp and plucked the string[00:02:47]
As my corset he unlaced[00:02:52]
I pleaded "Heaven calls the chaste"[00:02:53]
I begged "Don′t spoil me sir before you I do kneel"[00:02:55]
But then spoil me he did[00:02:58]
So now I say "Heaven forbid him"[00:03:00]
And I still think I′m in Heaven signed your loyal friend Cecile"[00:03:02]
