The Tudors2007
Sir Thomas More:
Sir George! Very glad to see you. I know you are a good Catholic man who has never been afraid to speak his conscience.
George Throckmorton:
So, in truth, should every man, Your Honour.
Sir Thomas More:
Indeed. But these days, it seems there are many who can be bullied into silence, or worse, into acting against their conscience. Mark my words, George: these next few days will determine the future of our faith. Whatever Mr. Cromwell says, however he dresses his argument up with honeyed words, the effect remains the same: he is demanding that the clergy submit themselves totally to the King's will and to secular authority. God forbid he should ever succeed! If he does, there will be no more Church, no more religion, no more spiritual life in this kingdom! Cromwell might as well rape the Blessed Virgin himself!
George Throckmorton:
Your Honour!
Sir Thomas More:
That's why I'm asking you, asking you and people like you, to remain strong and true. If you do, then you will deserve God's great reward, and much worship will come to you personally. Believe me, in time even the King himself will thank you.
