- Thomas Wyatt: These bloody days have broken my heart. My lust, my youth did them depart, And blind desire of estate. Who hastes to climb seeks to revert. Of truth, circa regna tonat.
- Anne Boleyn: [Indignantly] I know the truth! You look for dead men's shoes!
- Sir Henry Norris: Madame, I really must protest.
- Anne Boleyn: I mean, you suppose if anything bad happened to the King, then you would think to have me!
- Sir Henry Norris: Madam, if ever I had such a thought, then I wish my head were cut off.
- Anne Boleyn: Oh, that could be arranged!
