He'll be there next spring.
:35:03
If not, you can make another.
:35:08
You know, they say that
the plague's taken 10,000 men already.

:35:13
We're blessed with luck to be here.
:35:15
I'm for staying a week.
Take what we want and the hell with it.

:35:26
- Sorry, Father, I'm late.
- Next time you're late, no food.

:35:29
Yes, Father.
:35:31
Good.
:35:37
They say you can read and write.
:35:40
I studied at the university in Heidelberg.
:35:42
Then I taught there. The town was sacked.
:35:46
Your family were
burghers there? Shopkeepers?

:35:49
No, at Magdeburg.
:35:52
I envy you, seeing so many places
and knowing so much.

:35:56
You needn't.
:35:57
Before I was your age, I had seen two
brothers murdered, and one dead of plague.

:36:02
Sit down.
:36:08
It's years since I've seen bread so rich.
:36:11
The harvest was good.
:36:13
Our Lady is pleased for us to share it.
:36:17
How do you earn your daily bread?
:36:19
Work. Any form of work except soldiering.
:36:23
I can paint a little...
:36:25
I can teach writing, history, mathematics.
:36:28
I can speak Spanish, Italian, French.
:36:31
Father Sebastian teaches here.
The Holy Word.

:36:34
We've no need for writing
or the other nonsense.

:36:36
Works of the devil.
:36:38
Why did you lead the soldiers here?
:36:41
I didn't.
:36:43
I was trying to get away...
:36:45
from all soldiers.
:36:48
Some men are good luck, some bad.
:36:51
You are bad luck.
:36:53
- Your soldiers will kill our valley.
- No. Not if everyone works.

:36:57
Peasants, landowners, and soldiers.
:36:59
You are a fool as well as bad luck.
