RICHARD
(throughout with growing excitement).
Are folk still in the Old South Meeting-house?
WINWOOD
(impatiently).
Aye, still talking of what's to be done. Hancock and Paul Revere are at a coffee-house.
COREY
(as the lads gather about table).
Come, Dick, you've heard the governor's reply. How would you deal with the taxers?
RICHARD
(at table, center, one foot on table and one on chair).
I'd set their tea to brew!
ALL
(amazed).
What!
