Whatever your eyes light upon. If I cough, you read from the Bible.
First the letter.
MARY (reads).
"Dear Mary. I have so much to—
SOPHY.
He is getting up again from his chair. Read from the Bible till he is at the window.
MARY.
"Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again."
[FORESTER drums on the window.]
SOPHY (constantly watching him).
Now the letter, Mary. Till I cough.
