Bishop Gardiner
:
[Walsingham comes down the stairs into the holding area where the Catholic bishops are being held]
Walsingham! I would know by what authority you have kept us locked up here!
Sir Francis Walsingham
:
Your Graces must forgive me, but you are now free to go.
Bishop Gardiner
:
I am sure this infernal work has not saved your bastard queen.
Sir Francis Walsingham
:
Her Majesty has won the argument.
Bishop Gardiner
:
By what count?
Sir Francis Walsingham
:
By five, Your Grace.
[Looks up at the six bishops standing behind Gardiner]
Sir Francis Walsingham
:
Five.
[turns to leave]
Bishop Gardiner
:
You will be damned for this! And I pray God your wretched soul will burn in hell!
