For my part, I shall make no resistance." "Who shall, then ?" asked the King angrily.

"Do you expect that there will be a general rising of the people to liberate you, or that there will be a revolution within the palace, brought on by your party, which shall force me to set you free for reasons of state?

We are in Spain, and I am master, and my will shall be done, and no one shall cry out against it.

I am too gentle with you, too kind! For the half of what you have said and done, Elizabeth of England would have had your life to-morrow--yes, I consent to give you a chance, the benefit of a doubt there is still in my thoughts about you, because justice shall not be offended and turned into an instrument of revenge.

Yes--I am kind, I am clement.
