:42:03
This is Sir Lucas Pepys,
Lord Chancellor,

:42:06
whom I've taken
the liberty of consulting.

:42:09
The more the merrier.
:42:11
Are you familiar with
His Majesty's condition?

:42:13
I have spent a lifetime
:42:15
studying the anfractuosities
of the human understanding.

:42:21
An... what?
:42:22
The mind, sir, and it's, uh...
:42:24
delinquencies.
:42:27
If it were possible,
I would value an early view

:42:31
of one of His Majesty's motions.
:42:33
Yes. That could be arranged,
couldn't it?

:42:36
But what's the matter with him?
:42:38
Persistent delirium...
:42:40
and the pulse
sometimes rises to 110.

:42:42
The pulse varies.
It doesn't signify.

:42:44
I agree.
:42:45
I've always found the stool
:42:47
more... eloquent than the pulse.
:42:53
So, uh, what do you suggest?
:42:56
An immediate purge.
:42:58
Warren?
:42:59
He needs blistering.
:43:00
On the back to draw
the humours from the brain.

:43:04
Blistering on the legs
:43:05
to draw the humours
to the lower extremities.

:43:08
I agree...
:43:08
but he'll never submit.
:43:18
Hello there, Georgie boy.
:43:21
Not my skin.
:43:22
Not my skin, please.
:43:25
Oh, for pity's sake.
:43:28
I'm the Lord's anointed.
:43:30
God, unto whom all hearts
be open, all desires known,

:43:35
and from whom no secrets
are hid, cleanse...

:43:37
h-h-hearts by the inspiration
of Thy Holy Spirit

:43:41
that we may perfectly love Thee
:43:43
and Thy Holy Name,
:43:45
through Christ our Lord!
Amen! Amen! Amen!

:43:48
My most merciful Father...
:43:50
stray from thy ways
like lost sheep.

:43:52
We follow too much.
:43:54
God, help me. Help me.
:43:59
Have mercy upon us...
