:18:22
I shall reign alone!
Without the boyars!
:18:32
I will be Tsar!
:18:42
Now... I hold great power
:18:45
The people support me
:18:49
My personal guard form
an iron ring around me
:18:53
My enemies are kept at bay
:19:00
But I have no close friends
:19:05
God refuses me the sweet
consolations of friendship
:19:10
On whose shoulders can I rest
my head?
:19:15
With whom can I share my joys
and sorrows?
:19:21
I am alone, abandoned
:19:26
I had a single close friend-
Anastasia
:19:32
She has left me
:19:34
I had a friend, Kurbsky
:19:37
He has betrayed me
:19:38
No, not just myself...
but our great cause
:19:48
I don't fear the trouble-makers
:19:51
I don't fear the sword, poison
or betrayal
:19:56
I fear not for myself
:19:59
But I tremble for our great
cause
