:13:01
- I've been unavoidably delayed, milord.
- Delayed? How so?
:13:05
When I heard Normans
were approaching...
:13:08
...I ran to lock up my wife.
:13:10
But she'd also heard
they were approaching...
:13:12
...and locked me up instead.
:13:20
A fool's wife is safe, milord.
:13:22
We are bound for combat against your
Saxon knights at Ashby, three days hence.
:13:26
- Not for any Saxon lady's chamber.
- And how will you spend...
:13:30
...your last three days on earth?
:13:33
It will not be my friend and I who will die.
Will you be there to see the Saxons fall?
:13:39
Milord, there is a stranger at your gate
who begs shelter.
:13:43
He is a Jew who calls himself Isaac of York.
:13:47
I share no roof with an infidel.
:13:49
Why not, sir knight? For every Jew
you show me who's not a Christian...
:13:54
...l'll show you a Christian
who's not a Christian.
:13:57
Why should my guests be subject
to your prejudices...
:14:00
...when they have not been subject to
my own? Bid this traveler enter in peace.
:14:15
I come in peace, milord.
:14:17
May God reward your mercy.
:14:19
In peace, I greet you.
:14:22
Make a place for him at the table,
and give him food and drink.
:14:42
If hearsay does not lie, you have a ward
of surpassing beauty, milord.
:14:46
Why is the hall dimmed by the absence
of the brightest flame in Saxon England?
:14:50
Because, sir knight, we Saxons have learned
to hide our light under a bushel.
:14:55
Are we condemned never to pay homage
to her?
:14:59
No Saxon princess seeks homage from
the men who took her lands by conquest...
