Text

HENRY: You hit me on the nose with an orange.

ANNE: Your Majesty was storming the castle.

HENRY: Not the castle, storming you.

ANNE: All the more reason for you to be hit on the nose. Sire.

[... … …]

HENRY: But I can't, can I. Why not, why? Have you hexed me? You have, overpower you and I lose my power. What are you?

ANNE: I am Perseverance, my love.

HENRY: Oh dear, oh dear. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Am I lost?
