Duet, 'What have I to do with thee ?' : Chorus, ' Blessed are the men '
Quartet. 'O Come, everyone that thirsteth'

Elijah was first performed in Birmingham Town Hall, the Composer himself conducting.
The first extract is the scene between Elijah and the widow of Zarepath, at whose entreaty' he intercedes with God for the life of her son, and restores him.
Immediately, in the Oratorio, follows the Chorus 'Blessed are the men who fear Him: they ever walk in the ways of peace...'
The Quartet comes almost at the end of the work: 'O come every one that thirsteth, O come to the water: O come unto Him. O hear, and your souls shall live for ever.'
