Hilary Mantel Quote
But I want him north, Howard says. Tell him to go. Tell him Norfolk says he must be on the road and out of here. Or--and tell him this--I will come where he is, and I will tear him with my teeth.My lord. He bows. May I substitute the word 'bite'?Norfolk approaches him. He stands far too close. His eyes are bloodshot. Every sinew is jumping. He says, Substitute nothing, you misbegotten-- the duke stabs a forefinger into his shoulder. You . . . person, he says; and again,you nobody from Hell, you whore-spawn, you cluster of evil, you lawyer.
