Text

Start: Wolsey: The King called me early this morning. Exceptionally early. Thomas: What did he want? Wolsey: A son.

End: Thomas: If I were you, I’d deal with the King’s case here in London. You have the Pope’s authority-- get him his divorce before Europe wakes up to what’s happening. Wolsey: When Europe wakes up it may break this country apart.
