:38:01
I am aware of it.
:38:04
But it is
beauty's privilege.
:38:06
[ Giggles ]
You flatter, my lord.
:38:08
No. I have spoken
to the queen.
:38:12
Her Majesty's consent is requisite
when a Wessex takes a wife,
:38:15
and once given,
her consent is her command.
:38:18
Do you intend to marry,
my lord?
:38:21
Your father should keep you
better informed.
:38:23
He has bought me
for you.
:38:25
He returns from his estates to see us
married two weeks from Saturday.
:38:30
You are allowed
to show your pleasure.
:38:34
But I do not love you,
my lord.
:38:37
How your mind hops about.
:38:40
Your father
was a shopkeeper.
:38:42
Your children will bear arms,
and I will recover my fortune.
:38:45
That is the only matter
under discussion today.
:38:47
You will like Virginia.
:38:49
- Virginia?
- Oh, yes.
:38:52
My fortune lies in my plantations.
The tobacco weed.
:38:55
I need 4,000 pounds to fit out a ship
and put my investments to work.
:38:59
I fancy tobacco
has a future.
:39:02
We will not stay there long.
Three or four years.
:39:05
[ Sighs ]
But why me?
:39:07
It was your eyes.
:39:09
[ Inhales ]
No, your lips.
:39:14
[ Viola Groans ]
:39:18
[ Gasps ]
:39:23
Will you defy your father
and your queen?
:39:26
The queen has consented?
:39:28
She wants
to inspect you.
:39:30
At Greenwich,
come Sunday.
:39:32
Be submissive, modest,
grateful...
:39:37
and brief.
:39:40
I will do my duty, my lord.
:39:48
[ Viola ]
Master Will, poet dearest to my heart,
:39:53
"I beseech you
banish me from yours.
:39:57
"I am to marry Lord Wessex.
