After the success of "Trial by Jury", there were discussions towards reviving "Thespis", but Gilbert and Sullivan were not able to agree on terms with Carte and his backers. The score to "Thespis" was never published, and most of the music is now lost. It took some time for Carte to gather funds for another Gilbert and Sullivan opera, and in this gap Gilbert produced several works including "Tom Cobb" (1875), "Eyes and No Eyes" (1875, his last German Reed Entertainment), and "Princess Toto" (1876), his last and most ambitious work with Clay, a three-act comic opera with full orchestra, as opposed to the shorter works for much reduced accompaniment that came before. Gilbert also wrote two serious works during this time, "Broken Hearts" (1875) and "Dan'l Druce, Blacksmith" (1876).
