Rumours abound.
What rumours?
That you are weak. That you have returned weakened from your exertions in the Holy Land.
My master returns with honours, honours from the King!
Mmm. Well, the greater honour would have been to have stood and fought with him, surely?
[sternly] I have visited my peasants in your dungeons. They have committed grave crimes...
Master, surely--
... which would make all the more compassionate your gesture of pardoning them!
Pardoning them? I will see them hang in the morning. You yourself said that we risk rebellion. We must have order.
It is custom for the Sheriff to hear his nobles' requests for clemency--!
La-di-da-di-da! Oh, by the way, in your absence we nominated you to oversee tomorrow's entertainment.
No.
Oh, you don't want these rumours of weakness to spread, hm? Better scotch them now, otherwise we'll all pay.
