" You say you will not accuse him, and yet you make his head a plaything that you poise upon your crimson lips. But take care, my little duchess — take care, that this head does not fall from your lips with your laughing, and roll down to the ground; for I will not stop it — this head of the Earl of Surrey, of whom you say that he is no traitor/' " But is it not monotonous and tiresome, if we accuse the father and son of the same crime? " asked the duchess, laughing. " Let us have a little vari...ation. Let the duke be a traitor; the son, my king, is by far a worse criminal! " " Is there, then, a still worse and more execrable crime than to be a traitor to his king and master, and to speak of the anointed of the Lord without reverence and love? " " Yes, your majesty, there is a still worse crime; and of that I accuse the Earl of Surrey. He is an adulterer! " " An adulterer! " repeated the king, with an expres- sion of abhorrence. " Yes, my lady, you are right; that is a more execrable and unnatural crime, and we shall judge it strictly.
