:08:00
But when they accused me to my face...
:08:03
and l suddenly had to admit:
:08:05
''Yes, it's true.''
:08:07
That was dreadful.
:08:09
My mother wasn't too hard on me.
:08:12
But my father, the village blacksmith,
was strict and terrible.
:08:17
When he heard about it, he went for me
with an iron bar from the fire.
:08:22
He wanted to kill me.
:08:24
l had a younger sister...
:08:27
who used to point at me and say,
''Shame on you!''
:08:31
When the child was due,
l went into a nearby barn...
:08:35
because l didn't dare show my face at home.
:08:38
Strangers found me half dead.
:08:41
They carried me into the house
and put me to bed.
:08:45
On the third day...
:08:46
they took my child away...
:08:49
and when l asked later where it was...
:08:53
they said it was in good hands.
:08:59
Oh, ma'am...
:09:02
may the Holy Virgin
protect you from such heartache!
:09:07
The things you say!
:09:11
l'm a married woman.
:09:15
You shouldn't say things like that.
:09:18
lt's out of place.
:09:21
lt's unseemly.
:09:29
Oh, ma'am....
:09:41
Tell me...
:09:43
how do you imagine a ministry?
:09:46
A ministry?
:09:50
That can mean two things.
:09:52
lt may mean clever, distinguished men
who govern the country...
:09:57
or it could be a building, a palazzo.
