:03:31
You must forgive the manner
of our table, Mr. Pym.

:03:34
Our best crockery
is packed for the voyage.

:03:36
-Bridget, fetch the bread.
-Yes, Mother.

:03:39
We"d hoped to persuade
your husband...

:03:41
...to change his mind
about going to America.

:03:43
l should have thought you"d know
Oliver better than that, Mr. Pym.

:03:47
lt was not an easy decision, John.
:03:49
This is my country, my land.
God has been good to me here.

:03:52
-Then, sir, why are you leaving?
-l have a family, Mr. lreton.

:03:57
l owe it to my sons
to make a better life for them.

:04:00
England is no longer
a country for a young man.

:04:02
l recall you spoke
out in Parliament for the rights...

:04:05
...and privileges of common people.
:04:09
That was a long time ago, Mr. lreton.
:04:12
l had a vision then.
:04:13
A great nation.
:04:15
Prosperous, God-fearing,
good laws, strong...

:04:20
...respected throughout the world.
:04:23
That was the England l dreamed of.
:04:25
Well, sir, you are a squire now,
a man of property.

:04:29
Perhaps you no longer care
for the common people.

:04:33
Perhaps l"ve been misinformed, sir.
:04:35
l thought, as a Puritan, you
would see it as your God-given duty...

:04:39
...to do the Lord"s work in this land,
regardless of sacrifice.

:04:42
Mr. lreton, l was fighting
for the liberty of the common people...

:04:47
...when you were in knee breeches.
:04:49
Then why are you leaving?
:04:54
l am leaving because this country
crawls with greed and corruption.

:04:59
lt is governed by profiteers...
