1:41:00
...I fear from my present weakness,
that neither my wit...
1:41:04
...nor my memory will serve...
1:41:07
...to make sufficient answer.
1:41:10
I should be glad to sit down.
1:41:12
A chair for the prisoner.
1:41:28
Master Secretary Cromwell,
have you the charge?
1:41:30
-I have, my lord.
-Then read the charge.
1:41:36
"That you did wilfully and maliciously
deny and deprive...
1:41:39
"...our liege, Lord Henry,
of his undoubted certain title...
1:41:43
"...Supreme Head of the Church
in England."
1:41:48
But, I have never denied this title.
1:41:53
At Westminster Hall, at Lambeth,
and again at Richmond...
1:41:57
...you stubbornly refused the oath.
1:41:59
Was this no denial?
1:42:01
No, this was silence.
1:42:03
And for my silence,
I am punished with imprisonment.
1:42:07
-Why have I been called again?
-On a charge of high treason, Sir Thomas.
1:42:12
For which the punishment
is not imprisonment.
1:42:16
Death...
1:42:17
...comes for us all, my lords.
1:42:20
Yes, even for kings he comes.
1:42:22
The death of kings is not in question,
Sir Thomas.
1:42:25
Nor mine, I trust, until I'm proven guilty.
1:42:28
Your life lies in your own hands, Thomas,
as it always has!
1:42:31
Is that so, my lord?
1:42:34
Then I'll keep a good grip on it.
1:42:42
So, Sir Thomas...
1:42:44
...you stand on your silence?
1:42:47
I do.
1:42:49
But, gentlemen of the jury...
1:42:51
...there are many kinds of silence.
1:42:55
Consider first the silence of a man
when he is dead.
1:42:58
Suppose we go into the room
where he is laid out and we listen.
