Scenes with Jocelyn
13 scenes Jocelyn Jocelyn Do not shush me, and spare him. Be gone! Go!
Your name lady, I still need to hear it.
Jocelyn Sir hunter, you persist.
Or perhaps angels have no names, only beautiful faces.
You favor cathedrals.
Jocelyn I come for confession. And the glass... A riot of color in a dreary grey world.
Old Bishop
[after William rides into the cathedral on a horse to woo Jocelyn]
Does this not shock you, ladies?
Jocelyn Certainly, my lord, I just, I only laugh just to keep from weeping.
Old Bishop
[Understandingly]
Beauty is such a curse. Pray your years come swiftly for you, pray your beauty fades that you may better serve God.
Jocelyn Oh, and I do, my lord. I pray for it all the time. Why, God, did you curse me with this face?
Old Bishop
God's will has a purpose, but we may not know it. :[Extends his hand so that she may kiss his ring]
Jocelyn [goes to kiss hand, but instead admires the costly ring on his finger]
Oh, that is lovely...
Jocelyn I've come to see what you'll wear to banquet tonight.
Nothing.
Jocelyn Well, then we'll cause a sensation, for I'll dress to match.
Don't you ever get tired of putting on clothes?
Jocelyn A flower is only as good as its petals. Don't you think?
A flower is good for nothing.
Jocelyn Really?
You can't eat a flower, a flower can't keep your warm...
Jocelyn And a rose never knocked a man off a horse either.
You're just a silly girl, aren't you?
Jocelyn Better a silly girl with a flower, than a silly boy with a horse and a stick... [walks away]
It's called a lance... hello... ?
Why didn't Ulrich finish him?
Jocelyn He shows mercy.
Then he shows his weakness - for that is all mercy is.
Jocelyn I demand poetry, and when I want it, and I want it now.
Your breasts... they're beneath your throat.
Jocelyn Your name makes no matter to me, so long as I may call you my own.
Oh, but I am your own, Jocelyn.
Jocelyn Run and I will run with you.
I cannot run!
Where will we live? In my hovel? With the pigs inside during the winter to keep from freezing?
Jocelyn Yes, William. With the pigs.
Jocelyn Damn your pride, William. It is you and only you that will not see you run.
My pride is the only thing that they can't take from me.
Jocelyn They can take it away from you, they can and they will. Oh, they will. But love they cannot take.
I will not lose.
Jocelyn Then you do not love me.
