when I fell into the fountain.

And look at my bump

That's nothing.

And me,

I have a birthmark right here.

That's nothing.

Mine is worse.

Come closer.

My heart and my pride have just been

stabbed by this rabble-rouser.

I'm frightened, dear cousin.

Why do men of god seem

so afraid of women?

(an we not have a twin kingdom,

with two sisters on twin thrones,

putting an end to all the bloodshed?

Protestants and Catholics living in peace,

guided by the example of our sisterly unify.

Oh, I wish I'd seen her face to face.

Touch her hands

What does she really

look like, De Croc?

Believe me, she is as curious

about you as you are about her.

Of course she is,

she must be.

Do tell her not to fear

coming to Scotland,

It's not that bad, after all.

Does she really bathe

in warm milk?

Is it true

she has bad breath?

They say she beats her lovers.

Is it true

she wears no underwear?

And can't have children?

Off you go, ladies, we wish

to discuss political matters.

I promise to divulge more gossip later.

Could you perhaps suggest the prospect

of a meeting between the two Queens?

She extends to you any help you may need

in making preparations for a future match.

Oh, does she?

I wonder who she will

recommend to be my husband.

What of her empty matrimonial bed,

your Majesty?

At least, you know

what it's like to be married.

My dear cousin,

I'm delighted to hear you are interested

in the possibility of me marrying again.

I 'm rather excited at the prospect

of receiving a queue of young suitors.

Alas, I seem to lack

the good fortune to meet any man

capable of stirring my blood

or touching my heart.

But I sense adventurous times ahead.

My brother arrives early.

I thought him still in England.

Take charge of them, Rizzio!

I will take care of Darnley.

Am I not right?

Have I not the right

to choose whoever I want.

I, too, shall be free,

free to stand by my own choices.

Oh my dear sister,

I must confess I'm not completely

satisfied with my new husband.

I'm worried about his extreme views.

I assure you that I will curb his

fanatical plots against your kingdom.

Likewise I hope I can count on you

to disarm my treacherous lords

and stifle their fanatical plots against me.

The heir to both of our kingdoms

is growing safely within me

and we must not' (e? anyone harm him.

If you support the Protestant church

financially, that will demonstrate

- tolerance.

- And you will appease them.

Above all, it will heal

this country's wounds.

It would be unwise

to provoke her at this stage.

Don't tell me how

to communicate with my cousin!

Little one. ..

Don'? be frightened.

Mama will do everything
