"King James of England and Scotland has sent you his most precious possession, his son," "Prince Charles of Wales." "Neither God nor the crown can want a marriage like that." "Captain Alatriste, we are the children of Juan Barradás." "A good comrade, Juan." "Perhaps during the dance she and the Prince may commit a sin." "Have you found anything?" " No." "And the letter from my father, what did he mean by that thing about the Knight's blood will flow?" "The Prince wants you." " ¡Angélica!" "He wants to see you alone." "You've had enough of lessons for today." "No, I still need to learn more." "In the game room." " In the game room." "In the game room." "No, no!" "Your Highness." "We are talking about a wedding with a heretic." "But you know as well as I that there's not so much difference between the Anglican faith and ours." "Get this note to Quevedo." "They have gone to find it." "Your pin, Teresa, you have lent because you transform Alquezar into a bull." "How many do we get each?" "Vicuña, the stones have an owner, Barradás." "I have a mission, to prevent the wedding." "Thank You." " Engrave your father a good tombstone recalling that he was a soldier of the Old Third of Cartagena." "Episode 5:" "Like Blood." "Eminence." "Your Highness." "Highness." "I always forget that he is a heretic." "A very handsome heretic." "Philip IV, King of Spain, Portugal, Naples, Sicily and Sardinia." "Duke of Milan, Ruler of the Netherlands and Count of Burgundy, and Isabella of France." "I'll take care of it." "I beg your Graces, Excellencies ..." "What did you tell her?" "... And holy and Catholic Majesties to sit, to begin a small meal which will consist of capons or hot roasted turkeys, beef lasagna and buns and hot sticks." "What's happened?" "Is it true that you're still seeing your aunt with Buckingham?" "She isn't my aunt." "Rabbit empanada (turnover) with sweet dough, sausage tongues," "stuffed pastries," "Whole pig sausage, salpicones (mixtures) of everything, and smoked bacon." "Trout empanada, capons with cold filling, pigs feet mushroom casserole." "Next." "Next." "Next." "Next." "This food is not for ruffians and mercenaries." "Calling this crap food would be too generous." "Can you repeat what you said your worship?" "I have eaten shoe soles with more food than this broth." "From Ostente's site, perhaps?" "Diego!" "Diego!" "How poorly the peace suits you!" "Same with you and the Church." " Penitence." "We must purge all sins we have committed, Captain." "And this one?" "A little Alatriste?" "No, he is the son of Balboa." " Of Balboa?" "How is your father, youngster?" "He died in Flanders." "Lope was a good man." "I am sure he is now with our Lord." "Next." "Well, what brings you to the church?" "Because I do not think you come to pray." "The Father says you need protection." " More." "There are many people in the queue and I am not Jesus Christ." "I don't multiply loaves or fish." "Put more." "Go with God." " Give me more." "Next." "Do you really think I need protection?" "I think I'm going to retire." "To finish the play I'm writing for his majesty." "Not so, my good Olivares?" "Indeed, sir." "And you say, Madame, that you have come to Spain to meet a holy man?" "Yes, Majesty." "The Father Ferran." "And what does this holy man think of the husband who leaves his wife for other women?" "The Father Ferran says that adultery is born of temptation, and the temptation has a female name." "Then, to your holy man, is the wife the one at fault for being deceived?" "Oh, no, by God, Your Majesty!" "The wife is not guilty, she is the victim of another woman." "A wise man, that Ferran." "And good." "If I may, Your Majesty, ..." "You're telling me that the 100,000 ducats we gave him are not sufficient for the Roman cardinals?" "For the Cardinals, perhaps." "But what about my financial future?" "The Archbishop of Toledo is very ill and soon will need a replacement." "The pay is 300,000 ducats plus other perks." "If you get that papal bull the king might do everything in his power so that you occupy that post." "Perhaps then I will do everything in my power." "And more, if necessary." "Either that wedding occurs, or your concern will not be your economic future, but simply to have a future." "Are you threatening me?" "A minister of the King of Spain doesn't threaten, he demands." "Thank you very much for listening to my concerns." "The stakes are high." "I'll prepare everything for tomorrow." "Regarding your thing, pray 10 Our Fathers." "And leave something in the collection box." "I absolve you of your sins in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost" "Amen." "I would you have her, Father." "Give it to Father Pérez." "Ave Maria Purisima." "(Hail Virgin Mary)" "Forgive me, your worship, but I didn't hear you." "Sine macula concepta." "(Conceived without sin)" "Speak up, for God's sake." "Sine macula concepta." "Are you well?" " Yes, yes, yes." "What were you thinking, Diego?" "I do not understand." "He was been unconvered once after you pulled him and another when you defended." "You could have pierced him twice." "I decide when to kill." "And I do not like being told when." "Idiot." "You should have kept me closer." "You look like fools." "Can we know where you were?" "Come on." "Where were you?" "You are crazy." "How could you possibly disappear when we have a show?" "Stay out of my business." "What are you doing in those clothes?" "No time to change your clothes." "What do we do?" "My naked sword sheathed trembles, but I have felt it." "No need to fear at home, that the reapers sleep in the farmyard so that the hairs pass from love to fear." "And beginning to fear, there is no more sleep to cure jealousy, love." "Long years rejoice." "If they are like my desire, they will be almost immortal." "I feel good that you write him, but I beg you, no more craziness." "Crazy?" "No, not crazy, just love." "What, Steeny, you do not like Madrid?" "Madrid ..." "We are prisoners in this fortress and you do not realize." "I do." "Prisoners of the Princess Mariana." "Ah, Steeny, how obvious it is that you've never been in love!" "Maybe, but I've been a prisoner and it was much like this." "Rafael, I said not now." "I do not want to fight." "I do not want to fight ... again." "What are you playing at, María?" "I don't know what you're talking about." "Sure you do." "I have not tired of repeating it to you, your guard." "Keep your guard up." "You have to clean the wound." "If it gets infected you could lose the arm." "I did not know you were a surgeon." "Nor I you were a swordsman." "My war is only with that man." "The man accused my sister of heresy." "For writing a poem." "The day after tomorrow, he will testify at the Holy Office." "If he reaffirms the charge, my sister is lost." "I did not know." "You had not reason to." "That Father Ferran would have reported the Virgin Mary herself." "That Father Ferran is my friend." "I can talk to him, convince him." "You have much trust in friendship." "Trust in me." "I will talk with him." "That priest is your friend and you're willing to kill to save him." "And, Diego, what am I to you?" "A poor student." "Torio ... pure tori .. no, dorio." "Sorio sorio ... illusor." "No, no, it's impossible." "Come in." "Majesty." " Come in, sister, come in." "Sayings of the Devil!" "There is no way for them to marry." " If I am bothering ..." "No, no, it will be well to rest my mind a bit." "The muses are capricious." "I wanted to ask you one thing." "About the wedding, again, no." "No, no, no, no, not that." "I spoke with Madame de Brissac, and she told me that Mark Ferran is a simple man but a good Christian, who speaks clearly, without the frills of the theologians of the court." "I too found it interesting." "We'll give him a call, if you want to talk to him." "That's the thing, Majesty." "He is a man who hates pomp, and I've thought about going tomorrow to his sermon with Madame de Brissac." "If you give me permission." " Of course, Sister!" "But don't suffer." "In the end what happens will be for the best." "Yours and Spain." "I'm sure." "One last thing." "A word that rhymes with notorious but only has three syllables." "Hasty marriage?" "Hasty marriage." "Hasty marriage." "Hasty marriage, thanks." "Thank you, sister." "Hasty marriage." "You've been very helpful." "Hasty marriage." "That necklace has passed generations in the family." "It was given by Henry II of Castile to our ancestor." "It was my mother's." " It's the family's, and you've lost it." "It was stolen from me, but I'll get it back." "I do not see how." "The fault is with the Aunt who didn't accompany me." "If she had not stayed in the fort, she would have brought me in our carriage." "I understand her." "Uncle, she has stayed ..." " I said "I understand her."" "Go to your rooms and bring your mother's jewelry box." "But Uncle!" "Now." "Is something wrong, Teresa?" "It's late." "I thought it was never late in Spain." "Sir, excuse me." " What do you want?" "It is her, Sir." "Excuse me a moment." "I do not think it is a good idea that you come so late to my quarters." "I should find you." "Finding us secretly is what can raise suspicions." "So they'll think I'm another one of your conquests." "Maybe we should take that charade to it's end." "If you want me to undress first you would have to be dressed." "Do you you bring news?" " My plan is on course." "I need little to convince the Princess that she should not renounce her faith marrying a heretic." "And France?" "The Princess Henrietta Maria is in Paris trying to get to know the romantic English prince." "It's a detail we lack." "It will not be difficult." "Carlos is young and fiery." "You are a suspicious woman." "A helpless lady like me must be cautious." "Come, take this to them." "Go." "Don Francisco, Charity asks if you'd like dinner." "Quiet, quiet, youngster." "Never interrupt a poet when he is creating." "What arrogance!" "Pardon?" "Father?" "There is only one Creator, the rest are just useless imitators." "How can you compare any verse with God's infinite creation?" "Why, clearly, Ferran." "Where God puts himself, the whole world is gets out." "No, no, Copons." "It depends on what verse and what aspect of creation you compare." "The city is dying of hunger." "Will these verses feed someone?" "Honestly, I hope for the horns of Alquézar." "Poetry serves only to distract us from our faith." "What does our Father suggest?" "Perhaps he implies that I am not a good Christian?" "That I am among the loyal?" "But by God, Don Francisco!" "How could the father say that?" "I only say what I think, a good Christian acts, speaks and writes as such." "If that friar's habit didn't protect you..." "It doesn't." "The sword." "Ferran, we are friends." "Give me the sword." "Give it!" "I've never carved a friar." "Here, nobody will carve anyone." "Is that clear?" "Dinner is served, Don Francisco, pork stew, very rich." "If you want to menace a priest do it somewhere else." "We will soon continue this conversation." "Father." "Whenever you want, your worship." "Don Francisco, can I accompany you?" "What's wrong?" "You think I'm going to get lost, boy?" "No." "There is an issue that I want to discuss with you." "What?" "Let's go before he does something stupid." "Here nothing has happened." "Every man for himself." "What does that fucking monk know about my faith?" "Don Francisco." "What are you offering?" "I bring you a criticism." "You are a coward!" "Quiet, Iñigo, I would need much more wine to fear this Italian." "And that criticism?" "Is it of the rhyme?" "Or the meter?" "Or the rhetorical figures?" "More the theme of your poetry." "The horns are those who send me." "So there is little I can do to improve it." "If your worship has some memorable verse for his epitaph it's time to recite it." "You talk too much." "You know what sets us apart, Alatriste?" "Many things." "But only one is important." "I repeat myself, you talk too much." "I enjoy my work, and you do not." "Thanks for the assistance, captain, but was it not a sword that I needed." "Oh, no?" "What do claim you were missing, Don Francisco?" "A verse, dammit!" "That Italian was about to kill me and me without a rotten rhyme with which to close my life." "What a tragedy!" "Now, now I have it, and thanks to you." "The friend must be like blood, that goes to the wound without waiting to be called." "The best court poet." "And the one with the most friends." "Careful, Don Francisco." "The French woman said they are planning the wedding with the princess of France." "Very well." "Finally you are useful." "I think this information might interest the Count Duke." "That information I will decide who can be interested." "Now go to sleep." "You will be very tired." "They're here, Your Excellence." " I'm coming." "Luís." "Where are you going?" "Pardon?" "Good night." "May they be so." "I can get you some straw so you can sleep more comfortablely." "You know what killed the most soldiers in Flanders?" "The bite of muskets." "What else?" "Comfort, wanting to sleep well, eat hot and keep warm." "That way, you can not fight." "You know well why they attacked you?" "I have no idea." "I do know why." "It's about your statement tomorrow in the Holy Office." "I do not get it." "That is no more than pure formality." "They say you're the chief accuser of a nun who according to you has written some verses that deserve death." "Put like that ..." " Is there another way?" "Diego, these verses are not just words." "Those verses are weapons, axes the are cutting our roots, and when we least expect it, the tree will be rotten, dead." "Do not give me parables." "What was the verse?" "I do not remember." "And that verse that you don't even remember demands the death of a woman?" "What's up?" "Is that nun another of your conquests?" "It would not surprise me." "No, it's not that." "Then what do you want?" "For you to change your statement." "And why would I do that?" "Because a comrade asked you to." "Okay, I'll be a soldier of the Third one last time." "But you are also going to help me do something pious." "What?" " Give food to the hungry." "I'm risking my life." "And I'm paying you well for it." "It is what it is, if I want to stop those leeches from the State keeping half my grain." "Vultures!" "I did not think you were coming." "I had something to talk about with Ferran." "I like nothing of that man." "Well if you had known him 15 years ago he'd probably be in this bed." "Me with him?" "Don't be ridiculous." "You know how they called him in Flanders?" "The baptismal font?" "The balcony jumper." "That moron?" "He was always out with married women." "He had to jump off the balcony to avoid being killed." "Well, yes he has changed, yes." "Flanders changed them all." "And you, Diego?" "What were you like before Flanders?" "I do not remember." "It does not appear he has anyone out watching." "Logical, not to attract attention, but I do not know." "Inside there can be no more than three or four men." "That's not what worries me." "Then?" "We are soldiers, Captain, not porters." "Don't worry about that." "Someone will do the work for us." "How?" "Ferran said tonight they have to take the grain, so we will wait until it is loaded and when they open the door to leave we come in." "They say it is a church where they welcome to the faith the thieves and murderers." "Fear not, Highness, the guard comes with us." "At least, dear Angelica, they will not steal your jewels." "At best, maybe you will find your thief there." "There or in hell, but I assure you I will find him." "Angelica, sometimes I wish I had your determination." "And me your beauty." "Do not watch the weapon." "Look into the eyes of the other." "He kills with his eyes." "That's better." "You're dead." "That's the difference between a dead soldier and a live soldier." "One entertains himself by what's around and the other appropriates it as a weapon." "Is that not dishonorable, Captain?" "Take that nonsense from your head." "To kill a man is never honorable." "Come on." "Can you respond, by Jove?" "Can I not know why I have been called to a hearing?" "Through here, please." "Any word of Buckingham?" "Nothing." "I thought your wife was more ... convincing." "She has the eyes of the whole court on her because of that damn Quevedo and his poems." "Think of my reputation." "Fear not, your worship, for your reputation." "It was be restored henceforth." "Excellence." "Sir." "Stay." "Quevedo, is your worship a good Spaniard?" "Of course, Your Excellence." "Well the nation needs you." "The king needs you." "And I need you." "At your service I am, excellence." "Write a few tenths on the virtue of Teresa de Alquézar and the valor of her husband." "That are not anonymous but signed by your hand and lettering." "Honestly, Your Excellence," "I do not think my talent is at that level." "It will be." "I tell you it will be." "Accommodate our guest at this table." "With respect, Your Excellence, I do not think that table will contribute much inspiration." "I think the Sevilla cell where Cervantes was held is empty." "Perhaps there you will find your inspiration." "The table will be perfect." "Thank you very much." "Do keep anything because every penny in your pocket is a payment you make to Satan." "But, without exception, every one you give feeds your brothers and your soul." "Brother, you have that pouch full." "What are you, like those noble courtiers dancing water for our king?" "Those nobles with a full pouch and a rotten soul." "They take the food from the mouths of your children to feed a heretic prince, a prince who has been attracted by lust, sin, by Eva." "Why is he still here, this pagan prince?" "Because he knows that women are weak and with time and praise any lady succumbs to the fire of sin." "How sad you have nothing of value!" "The woman is weak by nature, sinful." "But what happens when the sin of a woman drags along a whole family?" "Or a town or a city?" "Or worse, what happens when the sin of such a Princess drags down all of an Empire?" "Corpus Christi." "Corpus Christi." " Amén." "Corpus Christi." " Amén." "Do you notice something different?" "I don't know." "What do you see?" "Your neck." "And what else?" "Nothing." "Nothing?" "That's it." "Tell your friends that I want my necklace or they'll be flayed." "What friends?" "These rogues who, yesterday stole my mother's necklace." "I know who you are talking about, but they are not my friends." "That does you credit." "I want you to recover it." "I'll pay you." "I do not want your money." "I have not yet said what form of payment." "This payment will be worth your time." "At dusk under my window." "Go ahead, Alquézar, go ahead." "Please." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "The only people who are afraid to sit in those chairs are heretics." "I hope the information you bring me is worthwhile." "Tomorrow we have a hearing and I still have much to prepare." "The French nobleman, brother, has come to abort the royal wedding." "I did not expect anything else." "It is good news." "Her intention is to marry the English prince with a princess of France." "What kind ...?" "What kind of woman is that Brissac?" "I do not know, brother, a woman who comes from a foreign country, and alone." "Some kind of spy." " Keep her watched." "We may need your service in the future." "By the way," "I have heard rumors about your wife." "It is not good to be the talk of the populace." "That issue is solved." " I hope so." "Adultery is a sin, but allowing it is also." "Please, lady, the Duke of Buckingham will receive you as soon as possible." "Tell him I'm Teresa of Alquézar." "I've already done so." "He said that he will immediately be with your worship." "Are you sure you're not going to need my help?" "How long ago has it been since you have entered combat?" "Fortunately, a long time." "So rather than a help, you would be a hindrance." "We will do it." "After all it's just food." "At most we will encounter a couple of porters who will be content to save their skin." "We need someone to watch for if the guards come." " That I can do." "Ferran, I see you in the middle of the night in the middle of the street and I would call the patrol and the Holy Office." "Iñigo can do it." "What's up?" "I've been waiting here quite a while." " And?" "Where are you going?" " To drink something." "I'm dry." "It is closed." " Why?" "For death." "Where could that damned kid be?" "Will the Duke greet me?" " When he can, ma'am." "This woman, beautiful rose, resplendent as the day." "Subtle ray, melody, is a pretty spring flower." "It is not your best work, Don Francisco." "Excellency, forgive my frankness, but the secretary Alquézar is not exactly a great source of inspiration." "Your worship has done a great service to the kingdom." "Thank you very much." "If your excellence does not need anything else from me, I retire." "Before you leave I wanted to deal with another case of paramount importance." "I do not understand, this is a play." "I need your grace to help the author do something with this text." "Aha." "What will you do?" " Burn it, is best thing to do with this." "Fool!" " Unless you can also burn the author." "Quevedo." "I see Olivares has given you my little play." "Yes, Your Majesty." "It needs some retouching, but so, at first glance, what do you think?" "Please, I beg sincerity." "That, Quevedo, a lot of sincerity." "Majesty, I can only say ..." "No, do not talk to me as your king, but as a young author." "I can only say that I burn to put myself in the service to this brilliant work and it's ingenious author." "Good!" "Good!" "To work, then." "There are a few tenths that have not convinced me completely." "Why don't we do it like Lope?" "And how does Lope do it?" "With feeling, more color, more Lope." "More Lope?" " More Lope, yes." "If you'll excuse us ..." "No, Luisa, is not necessary." " But Highness, it's is that ..." " Return table the letter." "No." "Wait." "What's in the box?" "Lady, a..." " Don't tell me." "Let me open it." "My love..." " Shut up, stop, please." "I do not want to condemn myself." "Do you realize?" "Our love is impossible." "Can there be anyone more unhappy than I in this world?" "No, Highness, do not say that." "Return it all before I repent and get out." "Get out, all of you." "Put on doublet, and let's go." " But captain, tonight..." " Hurry." "Balboa, as impetuous as his father." "He was like you, friend balcony jumper." "That was long ago." "And it's not something of which I'm proud." "From loving all women to wanting to burn them." "Only those who deserve it." "I've been reading the verses of that woman again." "And who is right?" "Right, Alatriste, that is what you lack in this matter." "You gave me your word, Ferran." "And I will keep it, but remember that man did not fall because of the devil but a woman." "I will wait in the church of the lord to store the grain." "Captain, where are we going?" "For one wanting to be a soldier, you ask too many questions." "But I've only asked one!" " Too many." "He is generous, your Father Bocanegra." "He lets me be washed and so I can later dry in the fire." "Do not speak foolishness." "It's no nonsense." "The view of tomorrow will only get me closer to the gallows." "The Father Ferran can change his belief." "That fanatic and ignorant priest?" "Why should he do that?" "A good friend convinced him." "What friend?" " Someone I trust." "Beware, do not be fooled." "Ferran is not a man to change his mind." "If anyone can convince him, it is him." "Him?" "Who is he?" "I had forgotten which of the two you were always the prettiest." "That's not true." "It is time." "Quiet, Ines." "Everything will be all right." "Sure, of course." "Let's go, she has to go out." "Password." "Two Hail Marys and painted in gold." "Your Excellency, please." "I had nothing to do with it, I swear." "Enough, he knows nothing." "Find those who have done this." "I want them to pay, and I want it known." "Understood." "Everyone has to know that no one can rob me." "Keep up the interrogation." "But your excellency, if you already know that I know nothing!" "Well, that's why." "Eat it all, it is a sin to waste food." "What are you doing here so early?" "What happens, are you homeless?" "Home yes, what I lack is food." "Diego, see if you can tell your friend that the watery soup is given in the church." "Diego, tell your wife if she continues treating me as such I'll end up in love." "She is not my wife." " The devil take you both." "And you, Mr. Sheriff, if you are going to drink, pay first." "I did not come to breakfast." "What can I offer you?" " Where were you last night?" "How come?" " A warehouse with Alquézar's merchandise was robbed." "I do not know anything." " And what, then, was stolen?" "Grain, a lot." " And why would we want grain, Saldaña?" "It's not like we are bakers." "Diego, someone recognized you." "And the boy too." "And that someone is a man, woman, or cat?" "Cut the crap." "Where is the grain?" "Martin, do your job and take us to the court jail or go from where you came." "I have not come to do my job." "No one has reported the theft." "Then I do not understand what a sheriff is doing, investigating a robbery that has not happened." "I want to avoid the spilling of blood." "Alquézar has put the Italian on the hunt for the thieves and you know that that one is not going to go delicately." "Neither will we." "Okay, whatever you want." "Charity." "Do you have bacon?" "Ask your lady mother for them." "Sorry, Captain, but I think I'm falling in love." "Uncle, and my mother's jewelry?" "When the necklace is recovered." "You treat me like a servant." "This punishment is unfair." "Your uncle is right, Angelica." "He knows it's not your fault but does not want it to happen again." "I do not want you to go on losing the family estate." "It is a poem." "By Quevedo." "Read it." "Say it isn't true." "Why has he done it?" "Because I told him to." "You paid him, Luis?" "I ordered him to it." "Do you find the poetry funny?" "Dear Uncle, it seems I am not the only one here who is losing the family estate." "IS A CUCKOLD, LUIS." "Get out." " Why?" "Get out, both of you." "Both, out of here." "Go." "Out, now." "And Ferran?" " Still has not returned." "How many people do you think can eat with all this, Diego?" "It depends on the hunger they have." "Well many, many." "Of course, not everything has to be feeding the soul." "No?" "Father, you are not going to start again with the confession?" "No, no, God forbid!" "You already know where and when you will get right with the Lord." "It is another matter, a matter that has nothing to do with condemning your soul, but another." "And still others." "Let's see:" "Suppose a soul that knows another soul." "Two souls." " Two souls." "And when two souls ..." "Well, you understood me." "No?" " Me?" "God forbid!" "Well, then I will tell you without any circumlocution." "If you do not marry the Lebrijana you will cook, but not in a bread oven, Diego, you will bake in boilers of the Devil." "I've done worse things than being with Charity." "But that's not it, blasphemous man, that's not it." "It's that cohabitation is a mortal sin, mortal." "And it is worse if there is recidivism as well, and no repentance, because there is no repentance." "You do not believe, father, that sometimes yes, I do repent." "Get out from here." " Ungracious." " Out." "There is nothing to be done." "And all this is because of that Father Ferran?" "Ferran's ideas are simple, and therefore difficult to defeat." "Monsignor, I do not want a theological discussion, only that our Princess changes her attitude." "Do me a favor, Eminence." "See that the Princess does not talk to her brother, the King." "I'll do what I can." "And something else." "Remember your archbishop." "Has it been understand by the accused?" "Has it been understood by the accused?" "Yes, your father." "Father Ferran, we all know of your eloquence." "So I would ask your worship to be concise and clear." "Monsignor, I will be." "Is not it true that your worship denounced the verses of the accused for being considered heretical, pro Lutherans, and almost blasphemous?" "Right." "All Right." "Do you have something to add?" "Remember, be brief." "Yes, Father." "Yesterday I was re- reading the verses of this woman, recommended by a good friend, analyzing form and substance." "Brother, abbreviate." "All Right." "I want to change my statement." "Proceed." "When I said that the verses were heretical, pro" " Lutheran, and almost blasphemous," "I should have omitted almost." "This paper is not a deviation from the true faith, it is a direct attack, and must be treated as such." "That's it." "Have you taken note Secretary?" "All Right." "Next witness." "You're a liar." " Yesterday I had a mission." "All cowards are fast fleeing and inventing excuses." "I know where the necklace is." "Take me there and I'll take care of it." " Do not even think about it." "If you do not take me I'll scream, say that you kidnapped me and you wanted to force me." "Okay, but I'll take care of it." "Blood of Christ!" " No, your blood." "So learn not to keep me pinned." "Come on, let's go." "No, no, it's impossible, never will I forsake my faith." "I cannot." "Lords, lets us act with intelligence." "I'm not saying abandon your creed." "I'm saying that you must make the Princess see that you are a person ... changable." "What is he saying, Steeny?" "I do not understand." "He suggests that you lie, Your Highness." "I did not say that." "That is a ..." " is it crazy?" " No, no, no." "It is a good idea." "The Princess is distressed by the words of an enlightened monk." "But they are just that, words." "Your Highness can make those words slowly be forgotten." "Words, your excellence, have started many wars." "Where is he?" " Excuse me, ma'am, but I do not know who you are looking for." "Diego Alatriste." "He's not here." "You can go up, if you want, but you will not find him." "I'll wait for him." "This is a tavern." "Await him in the street." "Give me something, then." "Wine." "What has he done to you?" "He has not changed his testimony." "Inés is lost." " What?" "You lied to me." "You condemned my sister to save that bastard." "I did not know, María." " Shut up, Diego, shut up." "I'm going to kill him, and you too if you cross my path." "Then make sure to keep your guard high." "Not now, dear." "Not now." "Highness, go to rest." "You have already prayed enough." "Father Ferran says it is never enough." "You're going to get sick." " Leave me alone." "May he convert to our faith." "May he convert to our faith, I know." "Pater noster qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum." "Give me that." " Let me go." "Give it here." " It's tin." " Give." "Let me go." " Return the lady's necklace." "Kill him." "Kill him." "Kill him!" "Kill him yourself." "Diego." "You gave me your word." "My word is worth nothing against the word of God." "What are you saying?" "Last night I saw him, Diego." "I saw him in a dream." "I saw this country covered in blood because of words like those of that woman." "Full of death and horror." " Like now?" "No, not like now." "Sorry, but I realized I had to stop this at any price." "At any price?" "Come on, what are you waiting for?" "It would be the second friend you kill because of a woman." "You are not my friend." "Take out my guts and I'll still be your friend." "Make way." "Beat all those who take wheat." "No!" "What are you doing?" "This is the House of the Lord." "Away." "I have come to kill a priest but it could be two." "Alatriste." "Isn't that thief priest a friend of yours?" "Just the issue we were discussing." "It's just that with so many friends to defend" "I do not see when you have time to earn a paycheck." "Why don't you shut up?" "Because I don't have so many friends as you and I always miss a good conversation." " Like this one?" " It pleases me." "Do you also want me to give you the last rites?" "Kill the priest." "Not the fat one, idiot." "Against everyone, you can't." "Make way, rogue." "Get out of here." "Do not let them leave." "Don't let them escape." "Stop their escape." "God." "No, Diego, do not bother." "We both know that I won't get out of this." "And the last rites?" "Me, I won't be delivered from hell even by Jesus Christ." "Well if you do not release yourself who is a man repented of your sins ..." "Almost all of them." "Which not?" "Jasel the redhead." "One never regrets a redheads." "One thing, Diego." "If you do not want to hear me as a priest, listen to me as a friend." "Tell me." "That woman, Diego, that woman will end up with you." "Here I go, Satan." "Pater noster qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum." "Your Highness, I ..." " Sir, you cannot be here with me." "What I cannot do is stop thinking about you, your highness." "Don't make me call the guard." "If they run me through with a sword, my heart will not be more painful." "If you love me please go away." "I will pray for you." "Pray with me." "Only one prayer." "Of Love of God." "That is possible only if we do it to the same God." "So be it." "Regardless of how far you pull, it will not change things." "What do you want?" "Have you come to kill me?" "To avenge your friend?" "I came to give you welcome to the guild of murderers." "How do you know I have not killed anyone before?" "Diego!" "I want to die." "I cannot live like this." "Please." "And remember, María, keep your guard up, always up." "Goodnight." " Goodnight." "Marry me." " I will not consider marriage without the permission of the Pope," "Sooner would I take the vows of a nun." "Swear to me that nothing that is said here will leave this office." "For Don Francisco do not take him without saying where." "I do not know whether to thank you." "Give them to me when all this is done, if we are still alive." "The Princess wants to become a nun, not marry the Prince." "The English, is there no way to tell them?" "I'll deal with it." " Tell me the truth." "Are you with her highness?" "Would do well to keep away from Angelica, Your highness." "She is not to be trusted." "You have cheated." "I do not think it is necessary to remind you that you have a mission." "Do you make decisions without telling me?" "We are having a wedding, right?" " At last, Captain, at last." "Everything is in place, Grace." "All of them before him." "He drew and ..." "I propose a deal." " Do you believe him?" "No."
