[00:16.32]chapter 3 Darnley and Riccio [00:23.10]At first I wanted to marry the son of the King of Spain，Don Carlos． [00:30.67]But he was a Catholic， of course， and my Scots lords did not like that． [00:39.14]It was difficult for me， James．I wanted to please myself． [00:45.60]I wanted to please my friends and family in France and to please my people，too． [00:54.00]And then there was the Queen of England． [00:59.63]At first I wanted very much to be friends with Elizabeth． [01:05.70]We wrote many letters，and talked about a meeting—a meeting between two sister Queens． [01:14.91]Elizabeth wrote to me at this time． [01:19.91]Our two countries need to be friends．You need a husband，I need a friend． [01:29.99]Why not marry my friend Robert Dudley，the Earl of Leicester？ [01:37.31]He is a tall，strong man． I think he could be a good husband for you． [01:47.07]I was very angry about this letter． [01:51.78]There were a lot of stories about Elizabeth and Robert Dudley． [01:58.14]They were good friends—he often danced and sang and talked with her． [02:06.60]Sometimes，people said， he stayed in her room all night． [02:13.66]Dudley had a wife， but one day she died very suddenly． [02:21.80]It was an accident—she fell down the stairs， they say． [02:29.44]But then， perhaps she was unhappy， because of her husband and Elizabeth． [02:38.40]‘And she writes to me about a man like this！'I thought． [02:45.11]‘She wants him to marry me， because he is her friend—her lover，perhaps！ [02:52.58]She wants her lover to be King of Scotland！' [02:57.59]I found a better man than Dudley， James． I found Henry Darnley， your father． [03:08.90]He was nineteen years old， and I was twenty－three． [03:15.30]He was a tall man， with a beautiful face and big green eyes． [03:23.00]He talked and sang well， and I liked dancing with him． [03:29.26]He often wore expensive black clothes， and he laughed a lot when he was with me． [03:37.64]He was very young and friendly， and I felt happy when I was with him． [03:44.80]I liked him very much， and I thought he loved me too． [03:52.43]He was an important man，too． [03:56.70]We were cousins—his grandfather was King of Scots，and his great-grandfather was Henry VII of England． [04:10.01]In July 1565， I married him． [04:15.76]Elizabeth was very angry，and so were a lot of the Scots lords． [04:22.79]My half－brother， the Earl of Moray，tried to stop the marriage． [04:30.20]I had to fight him，and he ran south，to England．But I was happy． [04:39.63]Your father and I laughed， every day． [04:43.74]He was now Henry， King of Scots． [04:49.46]After one or two weeks，the laughter stopped． [04:57.21]A King has a lot of work， James， you know that． [05:02.66]He has to read hundreds of letters，talk to people，and think about a lot of important things． [05:12.74]I did those things，every day．But now，I thought，I had a man to help me． [05:22.58]‘My lord Henry，'I said．‘Would you like to read all the letters with me？ [05:29.27]You can sit next to me， and you can work with me every day．' [05:35.92]Your father looked unhappy．‘ [05:40.34]I'm not interested in work like that，'he said．‘I don't understand it．' [05:49.09]‘Of course not，'I said．‘You're a young man， my love．But I can teach you．' [05:59.03]For one or two days he sat down with me，and I tried to teach him． [06:05.90]But it was true， he was not interested in the work，and he did not try to understand it． [06:17.08]‘You do it， Mary，'he said．I'm going out with my friends． [06:23.38]We're going to ride， and drink， and swim．' So I did all the work． [06:33.60]At night，too， he often went out with his friends in the town． [06:39.35]They drank a lot，and laughed and sang，and there were often fights． [06:46.59]But no one said anything，because he was the King， my husband． [06:54.75]What could people say？ They were unhappy， but they were afraid of him． [07:04.13]Some of them went to England， to the Earl of Moray． [07:11.01]At this time I was often very tired， because I was pregnant． [07:18.03]You， my son James， were alive inside me． [07:24.59]But I did all the work of a Queen and I needed friends too． [07:32.21]One of these friends was a young Italian， David Riccio． [07:39.74]Riccio was a little man and he was not tall or beautiful or strong． [07:50.93]But he was a very clever， interesting man． [07:55.75]He wrote many of my letters for me， and helped me． [08:01.58]He sang well，too，and I sometimes sang with him in the evenings． [08:09.20]I liked him very much，and at first，your father liked him too． [08:18.82]But then， Moray's friends began to talk about me and Riccio． [08:25.17]‘David Riccio is in the Queen's rooms every night，'they said to your father． [08:32.34]‘She laughs and sings and dances with him， my lord—it is not right！ [08:38.51]He is not a Scotsman， and he is not her husband． He is always with her．' [08:45.93]Perhaps they said other things，too—I don't know． [08:53.89]A lot of Scots lords listened to them． [08:58.35]But I tell you， James， before God， I did nothing wrong． [09:05.94]David Riccio was a good man． He worked hard，and he helped me—so of course I liked him． [09:17.76]Your father did not work—he went out to the town every night with his friends，and drank．And then one night， your father came home．
