From Pirates of Penzance by Gilbert and Sullivan:

  SONG--FREDERIC

          Oh, is there not one maiden breast
               Which does not feel the moral beauty
          Of making worldly interest
               Subordinate to sense of duty?

          Who would not give up willingly
               All matrimonial ambition,
          To rescue such a one as I
               From his unfortunate position?
                    From his position,
               To rescue such an one as I
                    From his unfortunate position?

GIRLS:    Alas!  there's not one maiden breast
               Which seems to feel the moral beauty
          Of making worldly interest
               Subordinate to sense of duty!

FREDERIC: Oh, is there not one maiden here
               Whose homely face and bad complexion
          Have caused all hope to disappear
               Of ever winning man's affection?
          Of such a one, if such there be,
               I swear by Heaven's arch above you,
          If you will cast your eyes on me,
               However plain you be, I'll love you,
               However plain you be,
          If you will cast your eyes on me,
               However plain you be I'll love you,
               I'll love you, I'll love, I'll love you!

GIRLS:    Alas! there's not one maiden here
               Whose homely face and bad complexion
          Have caused all hope to disappear
               Of ever winning man's affection!

FREDERIC: (in despair)  Not one?
GIRLS:                   No, no-- not one!
FREDERIC: Not one?
GIRLS:                   No, no!
MABEL:    (enters through arch)         Yes, one!
                    Yes, one!
GIRLS:    'Tis Mabel!
MABEL:         Yes, 'tis Mabel!
