The leading nobles of the realm
are bowing and scraping to us.
Diese ganzen hohen Adeligen
verbeugen ihr Haupt vor uns.
Tous ces nobles s’inclinent

chinano la testa di fronte a noi!
Os principais nobres do reino estão
se curvando e se queixando de nós.
Все эти знатные персоны
склоняют голову пред родом Вудвилей!
