VALJEAN 'Dearest Cosette, you have
entered my soul
And soon you will be gone.

Can it be only a day since we met And the world was reborn?
If I should fall in the battle to come
Let this be my goodbye.

Now that I know you love me as well
It is harder to die.
I pray that God will bring me home

To be with you.
Pray for your Marius.
He prays for you.'


VALJEAN
They haven't got a chance, these

boys
They almost certainly will die She'll be alone
And she will need me all the more And we will go on as before

When he is gone
I dare not think like this
I must find this boy


VALJEAN
"Don't shoot!"


JOLY
Here comes a man in uniform!

What brings you to this place?

VALJEAN

I come here as a volunteer.

JOLY

Approach and show your face!

PROUVAIRE

You wear an army uniform.

VALJEAN

That's why they let me through.

JOLY

You've got some years behind you, Sir.

VALJEAN

There's much that I can do.

JOLY

You see that prisoner over there?

GRANTAIRE

A volunteer like you!

COMBEFERRE

A spy who calls himself Javert!

GRANTAIRE

He's going to get it too!

GAVROCHE

"Don't kill him! I know him!"

ENJOLRAS

"Thank you, M'sier."

VALJEAN

Give me no thanks, M'sieur.
There's something you can do.


ENJOLRAS
If it is in my power.


VALJEAN
Give me the spy Javert!
Let me take care of him.


ENJOLRAS
Do what you have to do -
The man belongs to you.


VALJEAN
We meet again...

JAVERT
You've hungered for this all your life.

Take your revenge.
How right you should kill with a knife.

VALJEAN
Get out of here


JAVERT
Don't understand...

VALJEAN

Clear out of here...
JAVERT
Once a thief, forever a thief.
What you want, you always steal.
You would trade your life for mine.
Yes, Valjean, you want a deal!

Shoot me now for all I care -
If you let me go, beware!
You'll still answer to Javert!

VALJEAN
You are wrong,
And always have been wrong.

I'm a man no worse than any man.
You are free, and there are no conditions -
No bargains or petitions.
There's nothing that I blame you for.
You've done your duty, nothing more.

If I come out of this alive

You will find me at Rue De L'Homme Armee,
Number five,
No doubt our paths will cross again.
