:03:01
Sharp, sharp!
The king, the king!

:03:03
This is the king, sir.
:03:05
Whom I must cure.
:03:07
...As straight as a ruler,
:03:09
straight as a ruler
done by a ruler.

:03:11
And another beside that
:03:13
until you have
as pretty a ploughed field

:03:15
this side of Cirencester.
:03:17
I have a farm.
:03:27
Put us out of our kingdom.
We'd not want for employment.

:03:31
Give me the management
of 50 acres, and I could do it.

:03:35
I said...
:03:36
I have a farm, Your Majesty.
:03:40
Ahem.
:03:42
This gentleman, sir,
:03:43
has made the illness
under which Your Majesty labours

:03:46
his special study, sir.
:03:52
A mad doctor, is it?
:03:54
I'm not mad, just nervous.
:03:58
I shall endeavour to...
:04:01
alleviate some
of the inconveniences

:04:03
from which Your Majesty suffers.
:04:06
Inconveniences?
:04:09
Insults.
:04:11
Assaults.
:04:14
And salt besides rubbed
into these wounds. Look!

:04:18
By your dress, sir,
and general demeanour,

:04:20
I'd say you were
a minister of God.

:04:23
That's true. I was once
in the service of the church.

:04:27
Now I practice medicine.
:04:29
You've quitted a profession
I've always loved

:04:32
and embraced one
I most heartily detest.

:04:35
Our saviour went about
healing the sick.

:04:37
But he had not
700 pounds a year for it.

:04:41
Ha ha ha!
:04:43
Well, that's not bad
for a madman.

:04:49
I have a hospital
in Lincolnshire.

:04:53
Lincolnshire.
:04:56
Yes, I know Lincolnshire.
:04:58
Fine sheep there.
Admirable sheep.
