:22:02
You are most innocent
in the ways of this world

:22:05
and we must do all we may
:22:08
to guarantee the security of your throne.
:22:11
Now there is someone
I do wish you to meet.

:22:14
Monseigneur Alvaro de la Quadra,
the Spanish Ambassador.

:22:17
Why do I...
:22:22
My Lady,
:22:24
I bring a message.
:22:27
The King of Spain is enraptured,
and offers you his hand in marriage.

:22:32
My sister is not yet dead.
:22:34
Her bed is still warm.
:22:37
His Majesty finds it already cold.
:22:52
You must sign it.
:22:54
For the love of God, sign it.
:23:01
Will you leave your kingdom to a heretic?
:23:10
He then said that this King
would marry me

:23:14
but would not expect to share my bed
more than two or three times a year.

:23:18
As much as that?
:23:23
Well, he...
:23:25
He is enraptured.
:23:27
Naturally.
:23:30
But... his affairs would otherwise
keep him in Spain.

:23:35
Then the King is a fool.
:23:41
What could ever be important enough
to keep him from your bed?

:23:55
Robert,
:23:57
you should not say such things.
:23:59
Then I shall only think them.
