Quotes 

• Lambert Simnel : I want to go home. I want my father.

  Margaret of Burgundy : You're not going home. You're going to war. It isn't even rough. There's barely any heave at all!

  Duchess Cecily : How do you intend to protect him in battle?

  Margaret of Burgundy : Lovell and de la Pole will be there with him.

  Duchess Cecily : Have a care. He is just a child.

  Margaret of Burgundy : He's a child that will bring down the Tudor King. Or is that not what you wanted?

  Duchess Cecily : I will not be witness to this battle. When you sail to England, I will return to Burgundy.

• Henry VII : For the first time since I won at Bosworth we have engaged in battle. And we slaughtered them. You slaughtered them. My loyal, true and trusted men. I have my throne because of you, and I am grateful. You will be rewarded. But first, we must attend to our two traitors. The boy who led the army. And the York woman who has plotted against me since I won the crown.

  [people says "Traitor!"] 

  Henry VII : The penalty for treason is death. So... Who would have me kill them?

  [people cheers] 

  Henry VII : And who would not?

  Richard Pole : I would not, Your Grace. The boy is just a boy. A pawn for an adult game that he doesn't understand.

  Henry VII : And the Dowager Queen Elizabeth? The mother of the Queen?

  Margaret Beaufort : She has no excuse. She rallied the Irish. Paid them in gold.

  Henry VII : And yet, here I am. Undefeated. Their army barely drew their swords. You cut through them like barley.

  Lambert Simnel : Please, Your Grace.

  Henry VII : The boy will be given a job in the palace kitchens. He will turn the spit. And be thankful that he has no need to return to a father who would sell him for a keg of ale.

  Margaret Beaufort : Henry...

  Henry VII : [to Lizzie]  And you... may tell your mother, when next you visit her, that the King is in rude health, and sends his regards!

  [people laughs] 

  Princess Elizabeth : [Lizzie holds Henry's hand]  Thank you, Henry. Thank you.
