With a progressive 448 00:47:45,250 --> 00:47:48,870 Jesuit upbringing, it's not surprising your priest is bold and willful. 449 00:47:49,490 --> 00:47:53,050 If he were allowed to become governor of Loudun, he would defend Catholic and 450 00:47:53,050 --> 00:47:54,050 Protestant alike. 451 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:58,140 and have command of the most heavily fortified town in all of Poitou, your 452 00:47:58,140 --> 00:48:01,780 eminence.

But with that Jesuit background, it will not be 461 00:48:33,700 --> 00:48:34,800 easy.
