Eponine is shot at the barricades and Marius holds her while they sing "A Little Fall of Rain". With her dying breath she sings "And you will keep me safe. And you will keep me close. And rain will make the flowers...". With that, she dies and Marius finishes the song with the word "grow".
5. In the song "Lovely Ladies", the prostitutes sing about their job and claim "All it takes is" what?

Answer: money in your hand

During this song, the whores sing about the different types of men they get coming to call. They sing "Poor men, rich men, leaders of the land. See them with their trousers off, they're never quite as grand. All it takes is money in your hand."
6. In the song "Turning", what does one woman respond with to the question "Who will wake them?"

8. What character does not participate in the song "In my Life"?

Answer: Enjolras

The song "In my Life" begins with Cosette singing alone about having seen Marius for the first time. Valjean joins her to sing about her past.
