1:02:00
- Your pardon, Your Grace, l...
- I'm weary of your faces. Get out.
1:02:05
Come with me.
1:02:12
Caution.
1:02:15
Once again, you force me to wait for you.
1:02:18
Your pardon.
I was detained by Sir Robert Cecil.
1:02:20
- Are you Cecil's friend?
- I have never been.
1:02:23
He is a shrewd man.
He is a good man to follow.
1:02:27
- He would stand in well at court.
- That may be.
1:02:30
Why are you not his friend, then?
1:02:32
We're not on the same side.
1:02:35
Are you still Essex's friend?
1:02:37
Yes, madam.
1:02:38
- He is a dangerous man to follow.
- Dangerous?
1:02:42
- He is no longer in my favor. Forget him.
- Your Majesty...
1:02:45
All friends of Essex are going
straightaway to the tower.
1:02:49
Are you still his friend?
1:02:51
Yes, madam. Is that all?
1:02:55
- Sit down.
- But, Your Majesty...
1:02:57
Sit down.
1:03:11
You don't believe me. Why?
1:03:15
If you intended to imprison me in the tower,
I'd be there now and no talk about it.
1:03:20
You're shrewd. Perhaps too shrewd.
1:03:23
If honesty were shrewd, madam,
it would enjoy greater favor.
1:03:27
Honesty.
1:03:28
If I could only be sure
of one honest voice.
1:03:33
Tell me...
1:03:34
He wouldn't, couldn't fail me, could he?
1:03:37
- No, Your Grace.
- Then why hasn't he written me?
1:03:40
I've written him my love
time and time again.
1:03:44
Tell me truly, bitter or not.
1:03:47
Why hasn't he answered?
1:03:50
Have you angered him, sent him unwelcome
orders? He's very proud, you know.
1:03:54
I've cut off all revenue and supplies,
ordered him to disband his forces and return.
1:03:58
To send a leader out with an army
and then to desert him...
