[00:14.89]Chapter 8 England
[00:19.64]Elizabeth didn't give me her army．
[00:23.76]She put me in prison．You know this,
[00:28.18]James-it is the story of your life,not mine．
[00:35.16]I was twenty－five years old when I came to England,
[00:40.04]and I am forty－five now．
[00:43.98]Twenty years in English prisons．
[00:48.91]Moray told lies about me．
[00:53.18]Mary and Bothwell killed Darnley, he said．
[00:58.41]Mary slept with Riccio and Bothwell and killed her husband．
[01:06.03]But it's not true!They're all lies,
[01:09.69]James- wicked lies!
[01:13.71]They only said these things because I am a woman,
[01:19.66]and a Catholic, and they don't want a Catholic queen in Scotland,
[01:27.25]they want a Protestant king．
[01:31.90]A king like you, James．Why,
[01:36.02]James my son, don't you help me?
[01:41.04]Why are you friendly with Elizabeth, my enemy?
[01:46.53]You don't want me back in Scotland, do you?
[01:50.74]You believe these lies, don't you?
[01:55.29]You talk to Moray and his friends, every day．
[02:00.37]But they lied about me,James．
[02:04.17]Moray and his friends killed Riccio Then killed your father, too．
[02:12.14]They stole my husband Bothwell, stole my son…
[02:18.31]Stole my son's love…
[02:23.25]I am sorry, James．Forgive me．
[02:27.80]Sometimes I get very angry．
[02:32.15]It is difficult not to be angry,
[02:37.73]when you are in prison for twenty years．
[02:42.93]Elizabeth didn't know what to do．
[02:46.79]Sometimes she believed Moray,
[02:49.84]sometimes she didn't．
[02:52.52]She was afraid to kill me, because I was a Queen．
[02:59.02]She was afraid to let me go free,
[03:03.31]because I have friends in England．
[03:08.04]The English Catholics want me to be Queen of England, not her．
[03:15.52]And she is a woman with no husband and no son,
[03:21.71]so she hates me, too．
[03:25.17]Sometimes the English Catholics write to me and ask me for help,
[03:32.40]and sometimes I write to them．
[03:35.70]Sometimes Elizabeth's men find these letters．
[03:42.40]The English Protestants want to kill me because of these letters．
[03:48.48]'You are a wicked woman!'they say：
[03:52.75]' You killed your husband, Darnley,
[03:55.96]and now you want to kill our Queen Elizabeth．
[04:00.20]You're going to die!'
[04:03.47]'I did not kill my husband,'I said．
[04:08.45]'And when l came to England,
[04:10.94]I did not want to kill your Queen．
[04:14.81]I asked her for help-I wanted to go back to Scotand!
[04:22.11]But,my lords,she put me in prison for twenty years!
[04:29.11]Twenty years, my lords!
[04:32.16]I want to be free-don't you understand that?
[04:38.05]when men write to me and try to help me,
[04:42.32]then yes, sometimes I write back!Why not?
[04:49.09]Is that wicked, do you think?'
[04:55.77]They didn't listen． Of course not．
[05:00.00]They want to kill me．
[05:02.90]And so they wrote to Queen Elizabeth．
[05:07.22]And now I sit here, in Fotheringhay Castle,
[05:12.80]and wait for her to answer．
[05:17.63]I do not want to die,
[05:19.73]James my son,
[05:22.86]but I do not want to live all my life in an English prison．
[05:29.61]I am old, and tired of life．
[05:34.84]Think well of me, James, my son, and…
