But, as it has been a kind of destiny that has thrown me upon this service, I shall hope that my undertaking it is designed to answer some good purpose. [He accepts the sword. A great sigh comes like a hope from all around. A roll of snare drums far away and th...e group- ings shift so that Washington and Freedom stand alone together and the others draw aside. Brum rhythms succeed one another until they resolve into two themes. The one^ played by the kettledrums^ follows the syncopation of the Spokesmen's words. The other^ played by the [40] snare drums ^ marks the time of a march. To this accompaniment, the Continental Army comes upon the scene.
