:19:02
Sir, l submit you seek only to delay
the course of justice.

:19:05
By your favour, sir,
l seek only those rights...

:19:09
...which, as your king,
l would grant any one of my subjects.

:19:16
Silence!
:19:20
Sir, this court requires to know
if you have anything to say...

:19:23
...before judgement is passed
upon you.

:19:26
l have nothing to say to you.
:19:31
Then this court
will retire to judgement.

:19:38
What ails thee? Art thou mad?
:19:40
Have we come thus far
that you would betray us now?

:19:43
There is nothing in the Constitution
of this land that entitles us...

:19:47
-...to bring a king to trial.
-ls he answerable to his subjects?

:19:50
-The trial is clearly illegal, and l--
-ls not he answerable to his subjects?

:19:55
The king, sir,
is answerable only to God.

:19:58
When he dies,
he shall have much to answer for.

:20:01
-We have gone too far.
-This commission has no authority--

:20:04
-Our authority lies with the Parliament.
-Parliament is the law in this land.

:20:09
lf the charges against this king
be not proven...

:20:12
...what terrible retribution may he not
bring down upon our heads?

:20:16
ln the name of God!
:20:18
What are we all?
Men?

:20:22
Cowering and quivering
like downtrodden serfs.

:20:28
The king is not England,
and England is not the king!

:20:37
lt is not the survival of the king
that is at issue here.

:20:44
lt is the survival of England.
:20:49
And this king, by his dishonesties,
by his treasons...

:20:55
...and by his secret treaties
with foreign powers...

:20:59
...has shown himself to be ill-fitted
to govern this great nation!
