Your Grace?
:33:02
Do you like music?
:33:03
Yes, Your Grace.
:33:05
They'll play to you.
:33:30
Now, listen to this.
:33:35
Sit down.
:33:38
Be seated. No courtship, Thomas.
:33:44
You're my friend, are you not?
:33:47
Your Majesty.
:33:48
Thank God I have a friend
for my chancellor.

:33:50
Readier to befriend, I trust,
than he was to be chancellor.

:33:53
My own knowledge of my poor abilities--
:33:56
I will judge of your abilities.
:33:59
Thomas?
:34:03
You know that Wolsey named you
for chancellor?

:34:07
Before he died, Wolsey named you,
and Wolsey was no fool.

:34:11
He was a statesman
of incomparable ability, Your Grace.

:34:17
Was he?
:34:19
Was he so?
:34:22
Then, why did he fail me?
:34:26
It was villainy then.
:34:29
Yes, villainy. Secret opposition, secret.
:34:31
But deliberate, wilful,
meditated opposition.

:34:34
Wanted to be pope to master me, Wolsey.
:34:37
What is it? Thought!
:34:38
Because I'm simple and plain and deal
with every man straightforwardly.

:34:43
Because of that I say,
do they take me for a simpleton?

:34:51
Wolsey was a proud man, Thomas.
:34:57
Pride right through.
:34:59
And he failed me.
