"Something you see, but don't recognise." "An enemy." "Or a friend." "Or oneself." "I have something for you." "I don't dare look." "You know what I thought, the first time I saw you?" "If I could touch that man  just once." "He's so handsome I'd drink his tenderness even from a pig's trough." "You're blushing." "Are you going to make love?" "Mom says I shouldn't pretend to sleep when I hear you." "I heard you." "Who did this?" "Where's my groom?" "He left." "We looked after them ourselves." "Made them work to pay for their keep." "What happened to him?" "He ran off with the horses, that's what!" "We caught the horses, but he got away." "I don't believe you." "You don't?" "..." "Believe what you like." "I seek my horses, my lord." "Two black saddle horses left with you as a guarantee." "They're in the stable." "He just saw them." "He's making a big fuss because they're dirty and we made them work."

"He's going to stand." "I've come from the tribunal." "Your claim was rejected." "It's the third time." "There won't be another." "The Baron who wronged you is related to a gentleman of the Court." "I recommend you take those horses back." "Why don't you dismount?" "I can't stay." "I must be off again." "Won't you eat something?" "Please..." "Don't insist." "Do we end it here?" "Kohlhaas..."

"I'd rather you left me out of this." "Mom, come see." "We consider the horse dealer, 118.1 00:26:33,200 -- 00:26:35,500 Michael Kohlhaas, to be a litigious person," "Lord DeJacques, with whom he left his horses, 119.1 00:26:38,000 -- 00:26:40,500 is not keeping them from him." "Said dealer may retrieve them or indicate to the Lord where to deliver them." "We dismiss Michael Kohlhaas' 122.1 00:26:48,800 -- 00:26:51,200 foolhardy, vexatious litigation and instruct him not to importune 123.1 00:26:53,500 -- 00:26:56,100 the Chancellery with such suits," "upon pain of encarceration."

"He can't be far." "They want to follow us." "What do you say?" "[OCCITAN] I've come, Senor Kohlhaas to offer my respects." "One man and his horse against the whole world." "That's very strong!" "I too..." "I too broke the law." "189.1 00:49:35,500 -- 00:49:38,000 Hey, shush, shh!" "Listen, listen!" "I too broke the law." "Occasionally, like all men." "I mean, if there was a just God..." "I don't know what would happen." "If I weigh in the balance... what I did... against... what was done to me..." "Look, look!" "We've reached Senor Kohlhaas." "It's for you." "You need to wait a bit, but he'll fatten up." "How much did you pay?" "[FREN]" "No, nothing." "It's a gift.[OC]" "Kohlhaas doesn't accept gifts.[FR]" "We'll pay you." "Who here, can fight?" "Who's been to war before?" "You know what the Lords do to peasants who revolt?" "They cut off your fingers." "They gouge out your eyes." "They torture you slowly." "It lasts a day." "The death of a peasant is a joke." "I was a soldier." "I know what I'm talking about." "You, the big one, come with me." "The rest, go home." "Eh, I...[OC]" "I..." "I can fight." "Show me.[FR]" "I want to learn." "I have to see Sir Kohlhaas.[OC]" "It's important." "You brought the pig." "I haven't forgotten.[FR]" "The Baron..." "The Baron..." "I know where he is.[OC]" "When I was a child, a revolt broke out in a neighbouring province a fair distance away." "And one day, a beggar who had crossed said province brought into my father's house a rebel's manifesto." "It was a feast day." "Guests in every room." "The priest read the first article and everyone starts to laugh." "My father tears up the manifesto and chases off the beggar, with a stick." "Why?" "The peasants complained, in those 12 articles, that they counted less than our dogs." "I was 12 years old." "The great peasant rebellion happened a month later." "My father lost his life." "Three of our family's manors were burned and demolished." "Tell the governor, it's the best I could find." "Hurry, and speak to no one." "What are you waiting for?" "Hurry up." "Judith's grave is in bloom." "Thank you." "The neighbour doesn't want the house anymore." "He's keeping it for you." "You can buy back the land if you want." "You know, I can't stay with you." "I know." "What do you want me to do?" "Go home." "What'll you do about her?" "She's my daughter." "Any news from home?" "No one judges you." "Not one word against you." "And you?" "How do you judge me?" "The Baron just left the Abbey." "Are you at war because of mom?" "No." "Because of the horses?" "No." "Cesar!" "Two squads." "Eighteen men." "'My' men." "We do not take." "We buy." "We pay the rightful owner." "And we accept no gifts." "People give because they're afraid." "War does not give us the right to pillage to steal." "That's what the Lords do." "Not us." "Come forward." "Your house was pillaged." "Show me who did it." "Do you want to say anything?" "Is that your idea of justice?" "Hanging your own men." "Is that why you burn and massacre?" "Looks like you're preparing to ravage an whole town." "All these people you're dragging into war,... do they know what awaits them?" "What did you tell them?" "That Kohlhaas is the victim of a great injustice?" "You're a merchant." "You're business is prosperous." "For you, life is sweet." "What effort did you make to obtain justice?" "I see that your heart is rancorous." "That you're dragging all these people into a war that doesn't concern them." "I see that the sword that you wield is not the sword of justice." "That you're not a soldier of God." "God has been largely forgotten in this whole enterprise." "Kohlhaas..." "What awaits you on earth is the gallows." "All of you, know very well what awaits you." "It's an honour, for me, to make your acquaintance." "You know me?" "I've read your Bible... and I read it to my children." "If everyone did as you do... there'd be neither order, nor justice." "What would you yourself do if, among your own troops everyone wanted to be independent, to make his own justice and avenge himself?" "You'd say it's up to superiors to judge." "That no one may be the judge of his own cause." "God would help you... if you knew how to suffer as He asks you to." "If you learned to endure and to suffer injustice." "Don't you know, yet, that it's unfitting... for a Christian to fight with sword and arquebus but with the cross and with patience?" "That his triumph is neither domination nor power but submission and humility?" "I spent my life convincing the Church and the Princes... ..that they had no reason to fear us." "All we asked was to be able to live and prosper alongside them." "Your rebellion has set back our cause." "The woman... that I loved who bore my children went to the palace of the Princess" "to beg that I be given the justice rightfully mine." "Lay down your arms." "If the Baron looks after my horses —" "In the name of your faith, and of your children!" "— with his own hands." "Of all children raised by our principles!" "If he returns my horses in good health" "I'll lay down my arms." "And if not?" "You say you grieve the loss of your wife." "That you are inconsolable." "Don't you know the means of defeating death?" "Every living species has them from ant, to man." "You..." "You have the simplest:" ""Thou shalt not kill"." "Death is a choice." "Whoever doesn't kill, doesn't die." "What you must consider today is not your strength, which is great." "Nor the fault of your adversary, which is undeniable." "I only ask you to see whether what you're about to do agrees with justice" "and with your conscience." "It's all well and good... to fire words, like arrows, at these wretches." "Doesn't it occur to you to think of your own end?" "Of the child you'll leave behind?" "Of the thoughts that will no longer inhabit you?" "Don't forget... you die alone." "You had this all along." "The Princess is negotiating." "Not me." "I ask nothing more than what is written." "I'd rather you accepted the spirit of the Scriptures and not the Princess' arguments." "Will you hear my confession?" "Go down on your knees." "Are you ready to forgive your enemy, to retrieve your horses, to bring them home and care for them?" "I'm ready to forgive those who wronged me, unknowingly." "But..." "The Baron..." "Let me demand that he restore my horses with his own hands." "Pastor" "You deny me peace?" "With God, yes." "With the Princess, it's in your own hands." "We, Princess of Angoulême, Queen of Navarre, sister of the King bestow upon Michael Kohlhaas a pass for a new inquiry into his case on condition that he lay down his arms." "Should the tribunal reject his claim," "Kohlhaas will submit to the penalty for taking justice into his own hands." "If on the other hand, the tribunal finds him in the right he and his troops shall be pardoned and be granted amnesty for the crimes of which he is guilty in the land." "I saw injustice." "That's why I took up arms." "They can have my arms." "There'll be no more fighting." "Everybody go home." "No one will die today." "What about those already dead?" "Cesar?" "Amnesty!" "We surrender our arms!" "Surrender arms!" "Everyone!" "Have you turned in your weapons?" "I did." "Do you have children?" "No." "A wife?" "No." "You've kept nothing?" "You're certain?" "I have nothing left." "That's good." "I don't know where to go." "Do you know where Jeremie is?" "Do you know where he's going?" "Michael Kohlhaas?" "Majesty." "Do you know who I am?" "My father called you "Majesty"." "Your mother was harmed in my palace." "Would you believe me, if I said I was sorry?" "Do you think it's my fault?" "The town you were about to destroy before you surrendered your arms..." "I was there." "I had barely as many men as you." "You could have taken a lot more." "Why did you surrender your arms?" "I don't want a lot more, Majesty." "Only what is my due." "Are you a fanatic?" "I have principles." "A relative of the Baron used his position to make your claim disappear." "Did you know?" "Yes." "You are like me." "You live as much by the love as by the fear you inspire." "If you inspire only fear, everyone despises you." "Only love... is sign of weakness." "I suspect you're alone... disarmed... you have a child." "I'd like you to accept a guard." "Your Majesty, I don't —" "A few men, for your safety." "Until the trial." "The Baron may have found your horses." "In a bad state, but alive." "Go and identify them." "The court will have them restored to you in their original state." "You'll have what you wanted." "You prepared four?" "There will be four." "Two mares... two foals." "Is that why you got out the harness?" "Are we going to the fair?" "We're waiting for more men." "They'll be coming with us." "You're afraid for me." "I don't know." "Those are the orders." "You know your orders." "I do as I please." "One of your men did not surrender his weapons." "Two nobles were killed, their property stolen and distributed to the peasants." "I don't have any men." "There's an inquest." "The Princess gave me her word." "The Princess considers the amnesty broken." "Does that make me a prisoner?" "Get down." "Lisbeth." "Let's go." "Where is the house?" "We're going in exactly in the opposite direction." "Lisbeth!" "Eat." "I'll have to live with my aunt." "You can't live alone, Lisbeth." "I don't even know her." "I know her." "How about the house?" "What ABOUT the house?" "What if I go live there?" "Lisbeth that's not possible." "Apples from your home." "The neighbour agreed." "I spoke with him." "He wrote you a letter with the details." "Here, at any given moment, people start praying." "The bell rings, and they kneel." "All at the same time." "I had forgotten." "Only the Jews and us remain standing." "What's coming... will be hard." "I have difficulty finding..." "I don't know... the words." "The Princess intervened." "[GERMAN] I won't be tortured." "or flayed, or burned." "Thank God." "Do you know anything else?" "Yes." "Do you want to tell me?" "No." "The worst is the certainty.[FREN]" "I count." "Every day, I'm getting closer to Judith." "And further from Lisbeth." "It's not death." "Death, I'm used to." "I believe." "But the absolute certitude of the day, the hour, the manner... is the most difficult." "Kohlhaas..." "In the name of Marguerite, Princess of Angoulême" "Queen of Navarre sister of the King," "today I dispense the justice which you called upon yourself." "We return what was taken from you, by force." "Your horses." "Compensation money for your manservant." "Cesar had no family." "Give this to someone who needs it." "Reparation money for you." "Two years in prison for what he did to you." "You have what you wanted." "The black horses are for you." "Lisbeth..." "I know you're angry." "I'm not asking you to forgive me." "I was fortunate to have you." "You're very brave." "You're hurting my fingers." "I want to go." "Now." "Go with her." "Are we waiting for something?" "No." "Michael Kohlhaas... your rights having been restored in the preceding fashion;" "for your part in violating civil peace, may God prepare you, now to restore the right of His Majesty the King whose legal representative is here present." "I'm ready." "Subtitles corrected resynced ♪♪by AsifAkheirESL@teachers.org"
