Queen Rose Benjamin:
You've come to tell me... you've come to tell me he's dead.

Rev. Ephram Samuels:
...Ma'am.

Queen Rose Benjamin:
No - he can't be. I know him; he's harder than lead. He once looked at a man and he fell dead of fright. And you would have known this - you see things of this size. Did you see some sign? No! Silas does not die like this; he... does not die.

Rev. Ephram Samuels:
Rose... Rose, he was just a man, after all... more so today than ever. Now, your son and daughter... the country... they are all gonna look to you for how to mourn... Shall we go and see the body?

Queen Rose Benjamin:
Silas is not a body! He is not dead! Any moment, the king will walk through the door.
