Together with title-page (inscribed by Stone to Bridget D'Oyly Carte), an introduction by Stone, and typed Finale words. Stone writes: 'The following is an arrangement of the Utopia Act One Finale. I have edited it to give a faster moving pace and condensed some of the more long-winded and tedious passages. Although I have abbreviated Sullivan's melodies in some of those phrases and condensed Gilbert's lyrics as necessary to fit [...] I do not believe I have at any point violated either Gilbert's or Sullivan's intent [...].'
