Unwrapping all my gifts
1:28:08
In bed
1:28:13
The Christmas mass
1:28:16
Is over now
1:28:19
The Christmas prayers
are done
1:28:28
No one else is caroling.
It might as well be lent.
1:28:32
When I was little, Christmas was
a time of great confusion to me.
1:28:36
The holy land had two kings...
God and uncle raymond.
1:28:40
I never knew whose birthday
we were celebrating.
1:28:43
Henry isn't here. Good, we
can talk behind his back.
1:28:47
What happened?
Don't you know?
1:28:49
There was a scene with beds and
tapestries, and many things got said.
1:28:53
Spiced wine.
1:28:55
I'd forgotten Henry liked it.
May I stay?
1:28:59
It's your room just as much as
mine. We're both in residence.
1:29:03
Packed in like the poor,
three to a bed.
1:29:07
Did you love Henry...
ever?
1:29:09
Ever? Back before the flood?
As long ago as rosamund.
1:29:13
Ah, that's prehistory, lamb. There
are no written records or survivors.
1:29:18
There are pictures. She was
prettier than you. Oh, much.
1:29:21
Her eyes, in certain light, were
violet, and all her teeth were even.
1:29:25
That's a rare, fair feature...
even teeth.
1:29:27
She smiled to excess, but she
chewed with real distinction.
1:29:32
And you hate her
even now.
1:29:34
No, but I did.
1:29:36
He put her in my place, you see,
and that was very hard.
1:29:42
Like you, she headed Henry's
table. That's my chair.
1:29:48
And so
you had her poisoned.
1:29:51
No, I never poisoned rosamund.
1:29:53
Oh, I prayed for her to drop...
1:29:56
and smiled a little
when she did.
1:29:59
Why aren't you happy?
