Javert's arrival

(Javert climbs over the barricade)

JAVERT
Listen my friends
I have done as I said
I have been to their lines
I have counted each man
I will tell what I can

Better be warned
They have armies to spare
And the danger is real
We will need all our cunning
To bring them to heel.

ENJOLRAS
Have faith
If you know what their movements are
We'll spoil their game
There are ways that a people can fight
We shall overcome their power

JAVERT
I have overheard their plans
There will be no attack tonight
They intend to starve us out
Before they start a proper fight
Concentrate their force
Hit us from the right.
