What Harbour Shelters Peace Lyrics

(The storm is rising. Auntie comes out of "The Boar" to fasten the shutters, in front of
the windows. - Balstrode goes to help her. - He looks back towards Peter, then goes into
the pub.)
Peter
What harbour shelters peace?
Away from tidal waves, away from storm
What harbour can embrace
Terrors and tragedies?
With her there'll be no quarrels,
With her the mood will stay,
A harbour evermore
Where night is turned to day.
(The wind rises. He stands a moment as if leaning against the wind. - Curtain.)

Benjamin Britten Lyrics
Peter Grimes (1999)
Peter Grimes! You Sailed Your Boat Peter Grimes, I Here Advise You! The Truth... The Pity... Interlude I: On the Beach Oh, Hang at Open Doors Hi! Give Us a Hand I Have to Go from Pub to Pub Let Her Among You Look, the Storm Cone! And Do You Prefer the Storm What Harbour Shelters Peace Interlude II: The Storm Past Time to Close! We Live and Let Live Have You Heard? Now the Great Bear and Pleiades Old Joe Has Gone Fishing Interlude III: Sunday Morning by the Beach Glitter of Waves Let This Be a Holiday This Unrelenting Work Fool to Let It Come to This! What Is It? People!... No! I Will Speak! We Planned That Their Lives Swallow! Shall We Go Now Is Gossip Put on Trial From the Gutter Interlude IV: Passacaglia Go There! Now!... Now! Peter Grimes! Nobody Here? Interlude V: Evening Assign Your Prettiness to Me Pah! Come Along, Doctor! Embroidery in Childhood Mr. Swallow! Who Holds Himself Apart Interlude VI: Fog Grimes! Grimes! Peter, We've Come to Take You Home To Those Who Pass the Borough
