- Linet: The funny thing is, it was Dagger who told me not to talk to strangers.
- Lady Jean: Well, next time, maybe you'll listen to him.
- Linet: Well, I shall still think it's a sad way of looking at things.
- Nanny Bess: Oh, Linet, you'll never change!
- Percival: Well, as long as you know the difference between being fool-hearted and being brave.
- Linet: One is facing trouble and the other is looking for it.
- Linet: If you never talk to strangers, you may never make a friend, and a friendly looking stranger is no danger.
- Nanny Bess: No, daughter, no. Just because I know a few things, that doesn't make me a witch. But just to be on the safe side, let's keep this a secret. Agreed?
- Linet: Agreed.
- Dagger: I love to hunt with the pack under a full moon... I love a romantic dinner by the sea... The two don't seem to go together, though.
- Percival: Excuse me, ma'am. I don't know where I am; whose lands these are. I happen to be a stranger just home from the war.
- Nanny Bess: Well, you've landed on the moon and it's made of green cheese. And it belongs to an old frump named Molly... Welcome home, Percival.
- Lady Jean: No night / you don't frighten me / you're dark and gray / but you won't be here in the morning / for one whole day / Cry wind / try to frighten me / cry good and strong / but you won't be here in the morning / so I won't cry alone / Moon blowing a ghostly shade / smile away / soon you'll fade / I look up at a moonlit star / wondering where you are / Sleep child / Sleep now quietly / Be calm and still / the mist may rise / the hawk may cry / as shadows haunt my lullaby / But they won't be here in the morning / I will
- Lady Jean: [after Linet is asleep] So night / Why you frighten me is hard to say / Perhaps because as nights go on / I think how long my man's been gone / But you won't be here in the morning / He may.
