Let him come. I should be glad to see him.
1:15:06
Let him bring his revolution with him.
1:15:09
How long do you think it will last
when I have looked on it?
1:15:13
Please. There are plenty of troops available.
Let me post...
1:15:16
With your gracious permission, I will not.
1:15:20
Burghley, stay where you are, all of you.
1:15:24
This court wriggles like a mess of eels.
1:15:27
There will be no troops posted, no guard,
no defense steps taken, none.
1:15:31
- Your Grace, there's a mob rising in the city.
- It's true, I've come from there.
1:15:35
They've stormed Fleet Street
and broken into a wine merchant's cellar.
1:15:39
It's said they'll attack Fleet Prison
and set free the prisoners.
1:15:43
They've broken into a wine cellar.
They'll go no farther.
1:15:47
We're a marvelous people, we English...
1:15:49
...but we cannot hold our liquor.
- But, Your Majesty...
1:15:52
What do they say, these wine drinkers?
1:15:55
- "Up Essex, down Elizabeth"?
- Yes, Your Majesty.
1:15:58
Of course. What else
would they be crying?
1:16:01
"Up Essex. Viva! Down Elizabeth. En bas.
1:16:06
The queen is dead. Long live the king."
1:16:09
If I were there, I'd be crying it myself.
1:16:12
It has a wonderful ring.
1:16:14
"Up Essex, down Elizabeth."
1:16:23
- Your Majesty.
- Well?
1:16:24
Lord Essex has entered. He's on his way.
1:16:28
- I've ordered your guard to hold the stair.
- You ordered them against my wishes?
1:16:32
I had to, Your Grace.
1:16:33
- They wait for your signal...
- Which I'll never give.
1:16:37
This is madness.
The whole town's behind him.
1:16:39
So I've been told.
1:16:41
What are you considering,
me or your hide?
1:16:44
Your Majesty, if we do nothing, both you
and your kingdom are at the mercy of Essex.
1:16:50
Little man, little man, leave me alone.
1:16:59
Stand back, milords!
Stand back, I tell you!
