[#The Scene (the house# of HEEBLE TYSON, #the Mayor of the little Market#
#town of Cool Clary) and the appearance of the characters are as#
#much fifteenth century as anything.#
RICHARD, a #young copying-clerk, stands working at a desk.# THOMAS
MENDIP, #less young, in his late twenties perhaps, and less re-#
#spectable, looks in through a great window from the garden.#]
THOMAS. Soul!
RICHARD. --and the plasterer, that's fifteen groa . . .
