Smetana's "Bartered Bride Overture" is rhythmically tricky hence this, the "clean version" of the musicians' mantra for getting it right:
Duck
Love a duck
Love another Duck
Love another little duck
Love another and another little duck
etc
If you do not believe me, read their lips next time you watch an orchestra. Even foreign guest orchestras do it.

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
