Dramatic script for act I and act II of the operetta. As the leading comedian, Ludwig prepares to marry the soubrette, Lisa. His company achieves an opportunity to act on their conspiracy to overthrow the Grand Duke of Pfennig-Halbfennig, and Ludwig becomes the Grand Duke. Unfortunately, several other women have a prior claim on the Grand Duke's hand in marriage.
This operetta was the duo's final collaboration, and was first performed in 1896, ending an often-quarrelsome partnership encompassing a quarter of a century and 14 comic operas.

About A Century Since
Ah, Pity Me, My Comrades True
As Before You We Defile
As O'er Our Penny Roll We Sing
At The Outset I May Mention
By The Mystic Regulation
Come Hither, All You People
Come, Bumpers - Aye, Ever-so-many
For This Will Be A Jolly Court
Happy Couples, Lightly Treading
His Highness We Know Not
How Would I Play This Part
Hurrah! Now Away To The Wedding
If The Light Of Love's Lingering Ember
My Goodness Me! What Shall I So?
Now Away To The Wedding We Go
Now Julia, Come, Consider It From
Now Take A Card, And Gaily Sing
Oh, A Monarch Who Boasts Intellectual Graces
Oh, Listen To Me, Dear
Pretty Lisa, Fair And Tasty
So Ends My Dream And Broken Ev'ry Promise Plighted
Strange The Views Some People Hold
Take Care Of Him - He's Much Too Good To Live
Take My Advice - When Deep In Debt
Ten Minutes Since I Met A Chap
The Die Is Cast
The Grand Old Duke
The Prince Of Monte Carlo
Well, You're A Pretty Kind Of Fellow
Were I A King In Very Truth
We're Rigged Out In Magnificent Array
When You Find You're A Broken-down Critter
Why, Who Is This Approaching?
With Fury Indescribable I Burn
Won't It Be A Pretty Wedding?
Yes, Ludwig And His Julia Are Mated
Your Highness, There's A Party At The Door
Your Loyalty Our Ducal Heart-strings Touches
Ah, Pity Me, My Comrades True
As Before You We Defile
As O'er Our Penny Roll We Sing
