Forgive me, I spoke of things I should not.
No, no, I give you leave that we may always speak freely with each other, honestly, openly and with a true heart. For me, that is the true definition of love.
S1 E6True Love
Lady Anne, what are you doing here?
I have an audience with His Majesty?
What would a silly girl like you have to say to a king?
Dr. Knight's secret mission has been intercepted
Ah, Doctor Knight! Off to the Vatican, are you? And what have you here? Shows letters One is a letter requesting a nullification of the dispensation the King got to marry Queen Catherine. The other is a letter to His Holiness saying that if a divorce cannot be granted, that the King be allowed to take a second wife to father a son. Not only is the King challenging a papal bull, he is asking the Pope to sanction bigamy!
NNorfolk
Well, the King is plainly in love with you. Don't you see, niece... It makes a man, any man... extremely vulnerable.
How do you like your charge, sweetheart?
I... At first, I confess, I did not like it so much. I did not care for the King, but now, I... Now I...
NNorfolk
Anne, it would be wise for you not to be fooled by your own masquerade. It is your duty to use his love to our advantage in supplanting Wolsey.
The Cardinal stands between us... and everything. And it is now in your power to do him a great hurt, and we expect you to do so.
Let me know the moment the cardinals arrive.
Cardinal Wolsey is writing letters. Some time passes when King Francis comes to his chamber
Your Majesty.
KFKing Francis
You did not hear the news?
What news?
KFKing Francis
The cardinals are not coming.
CWCardinal Wosley
Why not?
KFKing Francis
The Emperor has decided to release the Pope from capitivity. Pope Clement ordered all cardinals back to Rome as the Vatican is once again in session. There is nothing I can do about; I am terribly sorry. They only take orders from His Holiness.
Cardinal Wolsey has been dealt a bad blow
King Francis{translated from French}: The wheel turns my friend.
S1 E7Message to the Emperor
Why should the pope favour the emperor, who has caused him nothing but misery, over the king of England, who has never caused him any harm at all?
EFEdward Fox
The trouble is, your Eminence, the swords of the king of England are much further away than the swords of the emperor. Diplomacy is nearly always settled by such proximity.
Spoken like a true lawyer.
[about Anne Boleyn] And your fear of The Sweat is greater than your infatuation with your mistress?
Katherine, she is not my mistress. I do not sleep with her. Not whilst you and I are still married.
Ah! Your Excellence, allow me to introduce...
FAFrench Ambassador
Is this not Mademoiselle Anne? Enchanté. His Eminence, Cardinal Wolsey, has told me all about you, but he did not tell me how beautiful you are. For a Frenchman, that is almost a crime.
CBCharles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk
Someone told me taking infusions was the worst thing.
Trust me. It will make you feel sick, but it's better than the sickness it prevents.
Ah! Your Excellence, allow me to introduce...
FAFrench Ambassador
Is this not Mademoiselle Anne? Enchanté. His Eminence, Cardinal Wolsey, has told me all about you, but he did not tell me how beautiful you are. For a Frenchman, that is almost a crime.
(smiles, answering in French) But Frenchmen tell all ladies that they are beautiful- that is also a crime, is it not? I have a gift for you.
FAFrench Ambassador
For me?
For you, Monsieur, absolutely. (George Boleyn leads over a large wolfhound) This dog is very fast (the Ambassador sticks his hand out to pet it and it growls)... and very formidable.
FAFrench Ambassador
(in English) What's his name?
Wolsey. (Henry laughs)
S1 E8Truth and Justice
CBCharles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk
Margaret, you and I must stay in the king's good graces or we are nothing. Let him marry who he wishes.
That was always your philosophy, wasn't it Charles? So very cynical. Is that why you keep company with that devil Boleyn?
You liked him enough once, when he helped us back to court... Or were you just being cynical?
I didn't see all of his game. Now I do. I despise him.
So do I. But I hate Wolsey more. It's a marriage of expedience.
Rather like ours.
No, I loved you.
You don't know the meaning of the word, Charles. You can love, perhaps for a year, a month, a day, even for an hour. And in that hour I do believe you love as well and deeply... as any man. But after that hour, you love not! You love another, and then another. Your love is most generous where it is most hurtful.
I have received a petition from the dukes of Suffolk and Norfolk and Lord Boleyn, saying the divorce has an overwhelming support of the people of England.
As Your Eminence would quickly discover if he stepped outside these doors and saw the people, that is a manifest lie. On the contrary, the people love their queen and they have every reason to do so.
Your Majesty, I beg that you yield to the King's will.
And what is his will?
As His Eminence proposes, that you join a religious community of your choosing and take a vow of perpetual chastity.
You speak to me of chastity. Have you not a mistress and two children, Your Eminence?
For a while, I shall have to share Katherine's table, and sometimes her bed.
Her bed!
It's nothing. My lawyers have just advised me that to do otherwise might risk counter-suits. I could be seen to be acting against her conjugal rights.
You think it's nothing, to go back to bed with your wife?
What do you think is going to happen?
What usually happens.
[to Cardinal Campeggio] Let me make certain things plain to you. If you do not grant the King his divorce, papal authority in England will be annihilated. You should remember, the greater part of Germany has already become estranged from Rome, the same thing could happen here. It would mean the total ruin of the kingdom.
