1:29:03
Packed in like the poor,
three to a bed.

1:29:07
Did you love Henry...
ever?

1:29:09
Ever? Back before the flood?
As long ago as rosamund.

1:29:13
Ah, that's prehistory, lamb. There
are no written records or survivors.

1:29:18
There are pictures. She was
prettier than you. Oh, much.

1:29:21
Her eyes, in certain light, were
violet, and all her teeth were even.

1:29:25
That's a rare, fair feature...
even teeth.

1:29:27
She smiled to excess, but she
chewed with real distinction.

1:29:32
And you hate her
even now.

1:29:34
No, but I did.
1:29:36
He put her in my place, you see,
and that was very hard.

1:29:42
Like you, she headed Henry's
table. That's my chair.

1:29:48
And so
you had her poisoned.

1:29:51
No, I never poisoned rosamund.
1:29:53
Oh, I prayed for her to drop...
1:29:56
and smiled a little
when she did.

1:29:59
Why aren't you happy?
1:30:02
Henry's keeping you. You
must be cleverer than I am.

1:30:06
I've tried feeling pity
for you,

1:30:08
but it keeps on turning
into something else.

1:30:11
Why pity?
1:30:13
You love Henry, but you
love his kingdom too.

1:30:18
You look at him,
and you see cities,

1:30:20
acreage, coastline,
taxes.

1:30:25
All I see is Henry.
1:30:28
Leave him to me,
can't you?

1:30:33
I left him years ago.
1:30:37
And I thought
I could move you.

1:30:39
Were you always
like this?

1:30:42
When I was young and worshipped
you, is this what you were like?

1:30:45
Most likely.
1:30:48
Child, I'm finished, and I've come
to give him anything he asks for.

1:30:55
Do you know what I
should like for Christmas?

1:30:59
I should like
to see you suffer.
