Angelica.
What's rack?
Betsy.
Order, Mrs. Church.
Angelica.
I know what ruin is. It's the salary your country pays you for saving it.
Hamilton.
Order in court!!
Angelica.
If you're the Judge, you've no right to be embracing that lady.
[Betsy is nestling during this.
Hamilton.
I'm not the Judge. I'm only the supporting Counsel. But most of my time
Angelica.
Ah!
Hamilton.
[Removing his arm and turning to Angelica.] Most of my time has been spent in trying to find the things that Betsy put away before she went away.
Betsy.
[Turning him toward her.] Why, Alexander, I put everything in its proper place!
Hamilton.
That's what caused all the trouble. That's why I could never find anything, till I had looked everywhere else.
