1:38:03
You can tell me that because
you've nothing to gain or lose by it.
1:38:08
But if I were to tell you
that I love you...
1:38:11
...you might suppose I'd do it
to save my life.
1:38:14
You love me still?
1:38:16
No, you have never loved me.
1:38:19
I loved you.
1:38:21
And that was your nearest
way to power.
1:38:24
This is the hour for truth,
so let me speak.
1:38:28
I am older than you, but a queen...
1:38:32
...so perhaps it was natural that you
should flatter me and I believe you.
1:38:36
Why, yes, yes.
That's true, if you wish.
1:38:39
And now, may I go?
1:38:41
This dying sticks in my mind
and makes me poor company.
1:38:46
But remember this, I did love you.
1:38:51
- And still do?
- Yes.
1:38:54
Then why didn't you send me the ring?
1:38:56
I'd have forgiven you everything
at any hour of the day or night.
1:38:59
I waited, thinking of course
it would come.
1:39:02
And the nights went by somehow
like the days, and it never came.
1:39:07
And here it is, the last morning...
1:39:09
...the last quarter-hour.
- Even if I believed you...
1:39:12
...I couldn't have sent it.
- Why not?
1:39:15
Because if I'd tried to hold you
to your promise and you'd broken it...
1:39:19
...l'd have died more unhappy than I am.
- But I'd have kept my promise.
1:39:23
I'd keep it now.
1:39:26
If I were to offer you this ring now,
you'd pardon me, love me as before?
1:39:31
Oh, yes. Everything as before.
1:39:34
And what would happen to your throne?
1:39:37
My throne?
1:39:40
- Why, nothing.
- Now there you're wrong...
1:39:43
...for I'd try to take it from you.
I played for power once...
1:39:46
...and I lost, but if...
1:39:50
Listen.
1:39:54
Do you hear that, Elizabeth?
1:39:58
The people are all with me.
