The Duke of York has seized the capital and the throne, but he must still overcome Queen Margaret's army if he hopes to be crowned king. Richard, imprisoned in the Tower of London, can only speculate about the fortunes of war.
I wanted to see your handsome
face twisted in despair!
Ich wollte Eurem hübschen Gesicht dabei
zusehen, wie es der Verzweiflung erliegt!
C’est ce visage tordu par la douleur
que je voulais voir !
Desideravo tanto ammirare il tuo bel volto
distorto dalla disperazione!
Eu queria ver seu lindo rosto
contorcido em desespero!
Я мечтала увидеть,
как твой прекрасный лик исказит отчаянье!
