[Henry VIII And His Court by Louise Muhlbach]@TWC D-Link bookHenry VIII And His Court CHAPTER XXIV 25/34
But the paper that is concealed in the rosette--that I must have--that must not be in it.
'If the king finds this paper. Catharine's death-warrant is signed.' Now, my reverend priest of the devil, the king will not find that paper, for John Heywood will not have it so.
But how shall I begin? Shall I tell the queen what I heard? No! She would lose her cheerful spirit and become embarrassed, and the embarrassment would be in the king's eyes the most convincing proof of her guilt.
No, I must take this paper out of the rosette without the queen's being aware of it.
Boldly to work, then! I must have this paper, and tweak these hypocrites by the nose.
