Short filmTranscript
00:05We knew nothing of a world beyond our own.
00:08We were aristocrats.
00:14Mr. Fox.
00:15I adored Caroline.
00:19I wonder what she did to provoke him.
00:22In my eyes, she could do no wrong.
00:24We have dismissed Mr. Fox.
00:26I am married.
00:29To Mr. Fox.
00:30I will not be disobeyed.
00:33I wondered what would happen when my turn came.
00:36What would my parents require of me?
00:40Admirers.
00:41Allow me.
00:46You can't marry. Your father won't allow it.
00:49Can't marry. Can't marry.
00:51So, my lord, how do you occupy your time?
00:55Well, at the moment, I'm building a house.
01:11I should be sorry to be the cause of any great disappointment, my lord, but my position is unalterable.
01:16I won't give her a penny more.
01:17Her dowry is fixed at £10,000.
01:21When her parents die, a distant event, one hopes.
01:25You must provide the rest.
01:27Marriage to one of our family confers such esteem that no financial advantage will be requested or given.
01:33My love for Lady Emily was not inspired by thoughts of fortune.
01:37What settlement do you consider?
01:42This is the sum I require.
02:06Then that is the sum I agree.
02:13Have it drawn up?
02:16Patience and dutifulness on my part had softened my parents' objections to Lord Kildare.
02:23He pays through the nose.
02:24There's nothing we could fold.
02:27Nevertheless, my father drove a hard bargain.
02:31I was to be handed over with scarcely a guinea to my name.
02:45My father was unstinting, though, in his provisions for the wedding.
02:49The celebrations were magnificent and attended by all London, including the king.
02:57Of course, my sister Caroline was not invited.
03:06How is my pretty plum cake?
03:09Yeah.
03:10David?
03:12She speaks in tongues, your grace.
03:14All my children speak felf, sir.
03:16Shall we see what she says to this?
03:17Of my two younger sisters, little Sarah was the king's favourite.
03:24Shall we put the lid on?
03:27She became something of a royal plaything.
03:30I don't know anything.
03:37Listen.
03:55The little plum cake is a patriot.
04:02Just like a father, eh, Richmond?
04:07Do you accept our offer?
04:09You keep us waiting.
04:10It's not the thing.
04:12But do you still want me, sir?
04:13Of course, of course.
04:16Then I am honoured to accept the position.
04:19Master of the horse it is, then.
04:30Master of the horse it is, then.
04:52Master of the horse.
04:59Master of the horse.
05:00Master of the horse.
05:01Master of the horse.
05:04Master of the horse.
05:04Master of the horse.
05:04Master of the horse.
05:04Master of the horse.
05:04Master of the horse.
05:05Master of the horse.
05:05Master of the horse.
05:05Master of the horse.
05:07Master of the horse.
05:13Master of the horse.
05:23Is it a little like Richmond House?
05:26Oh.
05:36Does it have pretty windows?
05:46Does it have a park?
05:48With spotty cattle and black-faced sheep.
06:18I do like being married.
06:24My dearest.
06:26Do you know what we must do tomorrow?
06:44More of this, perhaps?
06:57Do you know what we must do tomorrow?
06:59We must visit my sister.
07:12As a married woman, I answered first to my husband.
07:17My parents could not prevent me from visiting Caroline.
07:21And I did so the day after my wedding.
07:29Henry?
07:31Do I look well?
07:37Gemmy had no objection.
07:38He saw advantages in meeting Mr. Fox, whose star was rising fast.
07:45My Lord and Lady Kildare.
07:50We wasted no time in catching up on the missed years, and interrupted confidences.
08:06I can never express enough gratitude to you, Lord Kildare, for restoring my sister to me.
08:12I have wanted to make your acquaintance, Lady Caroline, and that of Mr. Fox.
08:17May your domestic happiness be equal to my own.
08:21You have chosen the best available.
08:25Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Fox.
08:27It is simply the truth.
08:30Well, this calls for a toast to happiness in marriage.
08:36My darling Steve.
08:39He is sweeter than any baby is entitled to be.
08:43You can't imagine what I feel for him.
08:49Is not the act of love strange?
08:56Demi says that its frequent use is necessary to a woman's health and happiness.
09:01That's abominably indelicate.
09:07He says what he thinks.
09:09I'm sure one sees many mighty comfortable old virgins.
09:13Perhaps that is so.
09:16But one is awfully glad not to be among them.
09:19Emily.
09:28Oh, dearest sis, we shall see too little of each other when you are gone.
09:32I shall return from Ireland often.
09:57To my eyes, Ireland was not at all the place of bogs and cottages my mother had told me it
10:02would be.
10:03My eyes then, of course, were not as open as they might have been.
10:08I thought it a pretty country and in parts like the England I had left.
10:13Its houses, however, were in need of some improvement.
10:20As mistress in my own home at last, I set about the business of refurbishment.
10:25No.
10:27No.
10:27Try the other one again.
10:29I can.
10:30I can.
10:34I can.
10:35Yes!
10:36Yes!
10:36That's it!
10:43There's some china silk up there, it's such a charm.
10:47More silk?
10:52How much did it cost?
10:55Two hundred pounds.
11:00A little expensive.
11:05Oh, it is so beautiful.
11:10Shall I put it on?
11:13Yes.
11:15I'd give more than I could name to have the pleasure of taking it off.
11:24My husband's feelings for me were such that I very quickly began to breed.
11:31I bred constantly.
11:35I loved my children.
11:38With annual regularity I gave birth, was confined and bred again.
11:43George.
11:53Good night, George.
11:59Good night, William.
12:02Yes.
12:07Emily, we cannot spend any more.
12:11I fear for my ruin.
12:12Good night.
12:13Good night.
12:15Good night.
12:41Hi
12:42much too late. We'll go another time, my love. I promise. You promised before. I was looking
12:50forward to this. There is nothing I can do. There is nothing you wish to do. You are happier
12:59away from me. You don't believe that.
13:13Your Grace. He will only talk to Mr. Fox. Who, my dear? The King. He will not listen to us.
13:22He asks repeatedly if we've run the war yet. And when we try to explain the difficulties
13:26of doing so, he calls for Mr. Fox. Because Mr. Fox is the only man he can understand.
13:36Who? Who? I never thought it a good likeness anyway.
13:51Jimmy, we must go to London. For what purpose? You must bespeak me.
14:01More stockings. Can Dublin not furnish you with stockings?
14:06Dublin is out of stockings. I need the blue, embroidered with silk, seven pairs, and two pairs
14:16of the green with pink flocks.
14:24I will bespeak you a thousand.
14:31This talk of stockings and the sight of your dear, pretty legs makes me feel what is not
14:42to be expressed.
14:54You are not fair, Mr. Fox.
14:57And you are very fair, Lady Kildare. I cannot argue with a pun, particularly if it flatters
15:03me. No one can argue with Mr. Fox. He always wins.
15:08I imagine Lady Kildare also has a habit of winning.
15:12Oh, I don't contest. I defer to Lord Kildare in all things.
15:16Ah. Is that not so? All things in the great world, perhaps, but in the matter of children
15:24and house, I think women have the wiser view.
15:28You would have us believe, my dear, that your opinions are confined to children and house?
15:33They have the major share of my thoughts, otherwise my thoughts are commonplace.
15:37Let us hear these commonplace thoughts.
15:42I think war is a disgrace to human nature.
15:46It makes us rich.
15:48But that should not be.
15:50It makes everyone rich.
15:52Our manufactories make arms.
15:54Our merchants sell cloth for uniforms.
15:56Our bankers make loans.
15:58Our corn prices rise.
16:00And your father grows richer by the day as his coal is used.
16:04Such wealth is dearly bought, paid for by people's lives.
16:08Not by ours.
16:10I don't want a profit from death, Henry.
16:17Perhaps I should refuse my pay.
16:20You said you wish to bring this war to a speedy end.
16:23Are you now saying you wish it to continue?
16:26It doesn't hinder my prospects.
16:29So this war is a useful instrument to your advancement.
16:35I said no such thing.
16:36War is a murdering trade and you talk of prospects!
16:53Is the end of war not in sight?
17:25I have never been more convinced of your being tired of me as I have been this last month.
17:32I know fidelity is not the custom amongst people of our rank.
17:35And there are some marriages where the presence of a mistress does not seem to disturb the wife.
17:43And perhaps I should be more accustomed.
17:47But I cannot bear it if I am not first in your heart.
17:51You think I have a mistress?
17:56A mistress.
17:58Why should I find time for a mistress?
18:00But if it was a servant or an actress perhaps I could bear it.
18:04But to be displaced by an equal.
18:08An equal?
18:09Who is she, Henry?
18:13Listen.
18:15There is no one.
18:17There is only you.
18:21You mean I have no rival?
18:22You are always in my thoughts.
18:26Wherever I am.
18:27Whoever I am with.
18:32You are the centre of my life.
18:36I think of you all the time.
18:38I think of you in the clamour of debate.
18:41I think of you when I am calculating the movement of troops from Portsmouth to Nova Scotia.
18:49Yes.
18:51Your rival is the war.
18:55Hm?
19:02I have looked at these applications, Lord Kildare.
19:05And I shall do what I can.
19:07I am grateful.
19:09There is a favour I must ask in return.
19:14If Lady Kildare doesn't mind.
19:18Have you considered what she did?
19:20It is done, Father, and can't be changed.
19:23Children are not independent of their parents.
19:24She knew that.
19:25Yet she set her will against mine.
19:27You know how she cared for you.
19:30I did everything for her.
19:31I know.
19:32I was the best judge of her happiness.
19:34I know.
19:36But she misses you.
19:38She didn't mean to give you pain.
19:39Your behaviour gave me pain.
19:41Mine?
19:42The day after your wedding you visited her.
19:44All London spoke of it.
19:46There would have been less noise if we'd lost the fleet.
19:50Father, years have passed.
19:56If punishment were needed, has there not been enough?
20:04I worry about you.
20:05Do not presume to worry about me.
20:08You think to advise me?
20:09You live in Ireland.
20:10What can you know?
20:12Father.
20:15Do you not want to see your eldest grandchild?
20:24Emily, you were a clever child.
20:26But it grieves me now to see that you have become a brainless woman.
20:41How dare he speak to you in that manner?
20:43He can't understand being crossed.
20:46Richmond is too proud.
20:48Pride is natural.
20:50If one's grandfather was king.
20:53And what of his grandmother?
20:54She was the king's mistress.
20:56One of the many he took to bed and her grandson presumes to be proud.
21:01Royalty issues its own permissions.
21:03My family has a legal line for 600 years.
21:07Should my wife be insulted by a bastard son?
21:12For God's sake.
21:18Mr. Fox, my husband so hates to see me upset.
21:24Indeed I do.
21:26We are both grateful to you, Lady Kildare.
21:29You did your best.
21:32You will never change now.
21:34I'm not certain of that.
21:43Perhaps the presence of a baby again in his household softened my father's feelings towards his eldest daughter Caroline.
21:52No.
21:53Bring her to me.
21:55Bring Lady Cecilia to me.
22:03A war had been raging between my parents and Caroline for seven years.
22:10A war had been raging in Europe for almost as long.
22:18This is no way to celebrate winning a war.
22:23Why should we have rain?
22:26I trust we did not request it.
22:29Rain, rain.
22:31We can overcome all else.
22:33But who can overcome rain?
22:35Catherine wheels that don't turn, rockets that don't shoot and fountains that don't spray are quite a deal to overcome.
22:43The rain is a trifle.
22:44No party goes well in the rain.
22:46No party goes well when the party pavilion is burnt to the ground.
22:51This was to have been a night we would never forget.
22:55I, for one, will never forget it.
22:59The dampest squib of my life.
23:02We so wanted a party.
23:05I will organise a party, Your Majesty.
23:07With peace restored on the continent, it was time for the family to be reconciled as well.
23:14Your generosity, Your Grace, is unequalled in London.
23:17My gratitude cannot be expressed.
23:24Mama?
23:26Caroline?
23:27Caroline?
23:35Father?
23:50Charles?
23:54Oh, you've grown so tall.
23:59What are you reading?
24:00Libby's history of the Punic Wars.
24:04A small memento, Your Grace.
24:08Dresden.
24:11A small straffle.
24:13To convey our regard.
24:16Pray, open it.
24:20A portrait of Lady Carola.
24:22Yes.
24:23To remember her by.
24:36Luisa.
24:39You don't remember me.
24:41Are you our sister?
24:47Sarah.
24:52Cecilia.
24:57Who are you?
25:00He's a fine child for his age.
25:03Favre's his grandfather, don't you think?
25:27Oh, we like it when the wheels go around and the rockets go up.
25:34That is fortunate, Your Majesty, because that is precisely what they're designed to do.
25:37Do you know everything, Your Grace?
25:41I'm interested.
25:42You know about animals and you know about antiquities.
25:46I can't think how many languages you speak.
25:50And here, you know about fireworks.
25:53Yes, they've turned out well in design and execution.
25:59I think I may say they've turned out well.
26:02I think I may say they've turned out well.
26:11Thank you, Your Majesty.
26:12Yes, sir.
26:19A splendid display, Your Grace.
26:23Indeed, indeed.
26:24Now that the war is over, Mr Fox, you must find yourself less busy.
26:29It takes as much effort to get soldiers home as it did to send them out.
26:34Well, forbid me to make a short oration.
26:36Certainly.
26:42Come on.
26:47My little girls.
26:49Charles.
26:50Come forward, Charles.
26:52My son and heir.
26:54I have here your most gracious Majesty.
26:58I have my family.
27:00My friends.
27:01I have my beautiful wife.
27:04The most wonderful prize a man ever won.
27:08I have my daughter Emily.
27:09Where's Emily?
27:12My daughter who was married in my house.
27:14And Caroline.
27:16My daughter who wasn't.
27:18But she has now happily returned to us.
27:20All strains are passed.
27:22All wounds are healed.
27:23All injuries forgotten.
27:25Henry Fox has acquired the regard of his monarch and his peers.
27:29He is being called a great man.
27:31And for Caroline's sake.
27:34I'm glad.
27:37Lord Kildare and Emily have given me two grandchildren already.
27:40Soon there will be another.
27:41Your grace.
27:43And Charles.
27:45My boy.
27:49In the fullness of time,
27:51you will take my place.
27:54May you be blessed as I have been blessed.
27:56You will build on the plenty you inherit.
27:58You will travel to Europe soon, see what it has to offer, and know that we can do more.
28:02Your majesty.
28:03Our country's influence stretches around the globe.
28:06May it extend from east to west through the known and the unknown worlds.
28:10May it grow, your majesty.
28:12May it grow and grow and grow and grow.
28:16Uh!
28:18Charles!
28:20No!
28:25Fetch the lawyer.
28:27Fetch the lawyer!
28:30Let's go.
29:06I'll join him before my mourning's out. I shall ask God to take me. I'm sure he'll oblige.
29:16She too died within the year. But we were to learn that decrees and principles could still rule from the
29:25grave.
29:27This is a final codicil to the will of Sarah, Duchess of Richmond.
29:32The bequests thus described have been declared in accordance with my husband's wishes,
29:37and his wishes with regard to the guardianship of my remaining children I accede to and relate.
29:44My son, Charles Lennox, now third Duke of Richmond, is the head of the family, but is to continue his
29:52education in Europe without interruption.
29:55The guardianship of my youngest daughters I give into the care of my daughter, my daughter Emily.
30:03It is my heartfelt desire that no influence may corrupt the morals of my children.
30:08I believe my daughter Emily and her husband, Lord Kildare, will ensure their moral and physical well-being until they
30:15are of marriageable age.
30:18They will then return to London to be presented at court.
30:40No influence may corrupt the morals of my children. This is a slur on you.
30:45My dear, it's a turn of phrase.
30:47He believed a freethinker could have no morals.
30:49What does it matter what he believed?
30:51I am the oldest sister. Do I not love them as much as you?
30:55Of course you do.
30:58Should they be taken to Ireland?
31:01There's nothing wrong with Ireland.
31:03It's not London.
31:05You have not been there, so do not judge.
31:08However suitable it is not their home.
31:10I believe it will soon become so, Lady Caroline.
31:12It is miles from all they know.
31:14Caroline, don't.
31:16This is father's way of revenge.
31:17It's simply his wish.
31:19Who knows what he thought?
31:21They return to us when they are grown.
31:24There's no consolation. It's years away.
31:27Emily, you will let me have them.
31:36I believe we must respect your father's will.
31:39This is between Emily and I.
31:41With profound respect, my name is mentioned.
31:45We must think of their good.
31:47I do.
31:49Your father's trust is an honor I did not look for.
31:52It's a duty I will not evade.
31:54It might be better not to dispute.
31:57Please be assured of our fondest care.
32:00No, it is not right.
32:03I cannot regard this as just or fair.
32:08I know I cannot alter the written word.
32:10I know I cannot bring back the dead.
32:12But it is not right.
32:14It is done.
32:16We must accept it.
32:19It's done.
32:24Having reunited us so recently,
32:27my father had split us asunder again.
32:30Caroline was hurt and angry.
32:33What could we do?
32:34Our parents were dead
32:36and beyond the reach of appeal or reason.
32:53My sisters, Louisa and Sarah and baby Cecilia
32:56were to be cared for by me in Ireland.
32:59I think I gave them the childhood
33:01my parents would have wished for them.
33:03Undoubtedly, theirs would have been
33:05a very different upbringing
33:06if they had stayed in London
33:08with Caroline and Mr. Fox.
33:12Well, James, that's enough.
33:16Below the board with cups and spoons is crowned.
33:19Oh, oh, oh.
33:21Hey, there's one line.
33:23Not at all.
33:23Say five more.
33:24And you'll grant me a wish.
33:26Let me hear you first.
33:28Meanwhile declining,
33:29at the noon of day,
33:30the sun obliquely shoots his burning ray.
33:33And the hungry judge is soon sent and signed.
33:36That wretched hang that your amen may dine.
33:39That was four.
33:40The bargain is five.
33:41No wonder this home is called Liberty Hall for children.
33:44Take him down, Henry.
33:45Not at all.
33:46Come along, Charles James.
33:47My nephew, Stee,
33:48had been joined in that household
33:50by a younger brother,
33:51the precocious Charles James,
33:53who was to become more famous than his father.
33:56Bravo!
34:01Sit here.
34:04Good.
34:05Fair and square.
34:06Now, what is your wish?
34:08I wish I could bathe in cream.
34:10Ah, bathe in cream!
34:13And so you shall, my boy.
34:24I believe I denied my younger sisters
34:27nothing in Ireland.
34:29At least I furnished them
34:31with a succession of playmates
34:32in the pretty shapes of my own children,
34:35my ever-increasing brood.
34:37Stay down!
34:38You're great then!
34:43Stay down!
34:46With this thing,
34:48I do worship.
34:49And with my body
34:49I do worship.
34:52And with all my worldly goods,
34:54I...
34:54And with all my worldly goods,
34:57I be endowed.
34:59And now you may kiss the bride.
35:05Very good.
35:08Now you read us the rest of the story, Henry.
35:11Yes, Sarah.
35:12Come sit down.
35:14Now, where were we?
35:19Often it seemed to me as if
35:21Louisa, Sarah, and Cecilia
35:23were my children rather than my sisters.
35:26Sometimes they even called me Mama.
35:30My home was theirs,
35:32and the years passed in busy happiness.
35:48When the time came for Louisa to be married,
35:51she did not have to go to London for her husband.
35:54I found her a perfectly splendid one in Ireland
35:57in the form of Mr. Tom Connolly.
36:00Nobody could have been more suitable.
36:04Damn fine speech you made in Parliament last week,
36:06Lord Kildare.
36:07Which one, Mr. Connolly?
36:08I can't remember exactly.
36:10The one about...
36:13Munificence or...
36:14Does not the Patrickate rejoice
36:15in the growth and munificence of his country?
36:18That's the one.
36:19Our munificence is curtailed.
36:21Our taxes go to England.
36:23It is a custom which is not just.
36:25England won't give back money.
36:27I may have to go to the king himself.
36:29I think perhaps you should dance with your wife,
36:31Mr. Connolly.
36:33Good idea.
36:35Ready, my lady?
36:40We'll show them how.
36:47The success of the match
36:50made me begin to consider
36:51whom Sarah might marry.
36:53And when will you marry Sarah?
36:56Marry?
36:59Me?
37:00Hmm?
37:02I do not know.
37:04But finding a husband for Sarah
37:06was going to prove more difficult.
37:30Good night, children.
37:31But, Mama, it's early.
37:33It is long past your bedtime, George.
37:36But they're still dancing.
37:38I expect they will dance till dawn,
37:41but my children must sleep.
37:44Go on.
37:49And you too, Cecilia.
37:52Good night, sister.
37:54Good night.
38:02Don't say you're hurt.
38:03I'd die on the spot if you're hurt.
38:05Oh, Tom.
38:07What a nice thing to say.
38:09I always go with things.
38:10Hunting, dancing, anything.
38:12No one can keep up with you
38:14in the country dance.
38:15Apart from you.
38:25Come on.
38:26Let's go home.
38:30Hmm.
38:46Where are all my servants?
38:48Get them out of their beds
38:49and get candles quickly.
38:51My lady must see her house.
38:53I have seen your house.
38:55Your house, my lady.
38:56You are its mistress now.
38:59It's splendid.
39:00George.
39:01I like it so much.
39:02You'll want improvements.
39:03Women always want improvements.
39:05I want lights in every room.
39:08Morning room, gallery, boudoir,
39:10drawing room, library,
39:12bedrooms, dressing rooms,
39:14blue room, study.
39:15Mr. Connolly, that's enough.
39:17Enough.
39:18Put the lights on
39:19in Lady Louise's bedroom first.
39:29I will only change things
39:30if you like me to.
39:31I so want to be a good wife.
39:33We'll make a splash.
39:35The first in fashion.
39:37The latest style.
39:43You will tell me how much
39:45you desire me to spend.
39:46You may spend what you like.
39:49I'm the richest man in Ireland!
39:55I'm the richest man in Ireland!
40:20He is never still for a moment.
40:23He is my darling flea.
40:26He must jump about.
40:34Marriage agrees with you?
40:38Indeed.
40:39I wondered at first.
40:42But it's not at all alarming.
40:49Should I wear the mustard or the lime green?
40:54I think the lime green.
40:56Oh, did you tell them to polish my riding boots?
40:59Yes, my angel. It's all in order.
41:06One would think you had been married for years, not days.
41:11I grew quite accustomed to it.
41:14I had nurtured my sisters well and was proud of them.
41:18In London, Caroline had less reason to be proud of her sons.
41:23You cannot go there again.
41:25Why not?
41:25But you, you lose so much.
41:28Lose?
41:29By my standards, 5,000 is nothing.
41:32Your standards?
41:33You do not pay. Your father does.
41:37I would have thought you both would have more sense.
41:39If one never ventures, one never gains.
41:41You never win.
41:42You lose and lose.
41:44Then it's ripe for our luck to turn.
41:46It is a wicked waste.
41:48A vice and a sin.
41:49Mother!
41:52It's a doing that gives so much pleasure.
41:58They only knew how much it hurt me.
42:00I'm sure they would stop.
42:07Charles James and Stee have been gambling again.
42:12Our sons follow the fashion of all young men.
42:18And they're drunk.
42:34Henry, do I begin to look old?
42:38Have I neglected to admire a new dress?
42:42You misunderstand me.
42:44I wish to look old.
42:47I wish to look old.
42:48Our visage, say you.
42:49And what is the purpose of this serious face?
42:54I can't help thinking Emily wrongs me.
42:59You can still launch Sarah.
43:00I shall insist on it.
43:04But I should have launched Louisa.
43:07I could have sat at assemblies like an old lady and helped find her husband.
43:12Why did Emily keep her?
43:14I am the eldest.
43:17Mama!
43:19Mama, do you see what I caught?
43:20It's a splendid fish, George.
43:23Will there be a river at Eton?
43:25Yes, William.
43:26And there'll be games?
43:27Latin and lessons.
43:29I'm afraid so.
43:31Oh, must we go?
43:32You must.
43:34I shall be taking you there.
43:37You're going to go to London again.
43:39I make no progress in my efforts here.
43:42Ireland is prospering, but all our tax ends up in London.
43:45I'm making a protest.
43:47I may resign one of my positions.
43:50It's not the best time for us to lose income.
43:53Whatever our income, my Emily will spend it.
44:00Jimmy, I'm reading again.
44:03Again?
44:03That's George, William, Henrietta, little Emily, Sophia...
44:09Charlotte.
44:10Charlotte.
44:10Lucy.
44:11That's six.
44:13Seven.
44:15Jimmy?
44:16Is it?
44:20No!
44:23Nice.
44:40I'm frightened for them.
44:42So far from home.
44:45They will soon become a castle.
44:47Yes, my lord.
44:52What will I?
44:55A mother's natural fears accompanied every separation from my sons.
45:00George and William, who were my eldest, were the first to leave me.
45:04I hated to see them go.
45:12Lord Kildare.
45:16And did your business prosper today, my lord?
45:19There was another day of delays.
45:22I waited half the day to petition the king, then was told his majesty was fatigued and would see no
45:27one else.
45:27Half a day?
45:29That's nothing.
45:31Time slips by.
45:32I get nowhere.
45:34What do you wish to accomplish?
45:36It's not easy.
45:38Were it not for your help and guidance, I believe I would despair.
45:41A word from you.
45:42I have less influence than you imagine.
45:44My cause is just.
45:46Your parliament bleeds Ireland dry.
45:49Ireland's taxes should make Ireland rich.
45:51I have believed in the justice of many causes.
45:56But the greater my convictions, the more enemies I have made.
46:01Justice guarantees nothing.
46:04You will not help me, then?
46:05I shall do what I can.
46:08I don't promise success.
46:13You will stay to dine?
46:14If you'll excuse me, Lady Caroline.
46:16I'm fagged to death.
46:19Good night.
46:25Will you see the king?
46:26Not a chance in the world.
46:29Are you going to help him?
46:32I may arrange a few more fruitless appointments with ministers.
46:36But to be frank, my dear, he's something of an embarrassment.
46:42How must he concern himself with matters he barely understands?
46:47Why can't he simply enjoy being rich?
46:53My children adore your little flea.
46:58Come on.
47:00Come on.
47:04I see your maid is breeding.
47:07Louisa.
47:09I'm not the only woman in my house that can breed of my lord, Kildare.
47:18She's...
47:21It's...
47:22Constancy is rarely found in men.
47:29That part of their nature is hard for us to judge.
47:33I would be jealous.
47:36I wouldn't overcome it.
47:38I would be jealous.
47:40You would make yourself unhappy and to no avail.
47:46Infidelity in men
47:48is as common as rain
47:50and has as little meaning.
47:56And besides,
47:58Jamie loves me.
48:01I see.
48:08Who knows?
48:10Someday I may have a lover, too.
48:30Who knows?
48:31Someday I may have a lover, too.
48:31You with me.
48:36I see.
48:47You're welcome.
48:51You're welcome.
48:54I'm never a ghost.
