TODD - Act 2 "VII. The Heavenly Judgement"

The Judge: I was not afraid of anything in this life, but there... I am terribly scared. Terribly!

Todd: And what if there is just nothing there?

The Judge: What a bad joke! In this life, I have been the Justice, but there... I am scared. Fearfully!

Todd: When those innocent, convicted falsely, will come, you will not give them a term. You will not give them...

The Judge: In this life, I have sinned a lot, but there... God sees. He sees...

Todd: And now do you think you are going to Heaven? Well, no, it will not work! Will not work!

I would have absolved your sins, Judge, and you could roll on to Paradise – to Paradise – but your sins, Judge, do not let you go: they do not let you go, they do not let you go!

The narrator’s voice: One more flash of the razor – and the horrible revenge is taken! Dulled, Sweeney return home – now, everything, everything is over. But fortune disposed otherwise: on having noticed the familiar cassock in the doorway of the hairdressing saloon, Eliza rushes for her father, but came upon a stranger with an insane look and bloody hands. “Betty?” – The girl and her mother looked as like as two peas in a pod, and her name was the same – Elizabeth – Betty. Confused in his mind, Todd mistakes the daughter for his wife. “Why are you alive? You are alive in my heart, but dead in this world. I avenged your death, hated everyone, I shed rivers of blood... and all for nothing? No, you must not be alive!”
