He put gently a hand on her arm, reassuringly. You have to appear only once, most gracious lady. You will only adress yourself to the king himself and then leave the court forgood, whatever they say or do... and just let me handle the rest, your majesty!

You should appear on the court as summoned, your majesty, to tell them you don't acknowledge their authority and to speak out for yourself in front of everyone. But no one can compel you to appear again... and it is not necessary too, because meanwhile we keep sending letters to the Pope and to your nephew the Emperor to withdraw the trial and to bring back the matter in the hands of the Pope himself, who, as you probably can guess, never will grant an annulment by himself! he speaks convinced.

Fisher smiles weakly and bows his head. I will do everything within my powers to defend you, as you deserve being the good and righteous queen whole England admires and loves!
He looks in her eyes. Never give up, please, for God and the angels are on our side! But if you will excuse me now, I have to go and prepare for the trial.
He bows deeply before her and steps backwards to leave the room.
