1, Isn't it "Have some Madeira, m'dear!"?

2. I like a challenge:

... there's one thing I still do very well...
...Although my hair is turning grey,
I still believe it when I say....

[She:]: Well, what do you say?

[He:] It's never too late to have a fling
For autumn is just as nice as spring
And it's never too late to fall in love.

It's never too late to whisper words
Concerning the ways of bees and birds
And its...

A fiddle that's old is more in tune
And it's...
