You’ll not go anywhere, he announced. Yes, I will, she said, through gritted teeth. You’ll use a chamber pot. I will not! He thrust his hand in front of her face. The heavy silver ring sat prominently on his middle finger. This says you’ll obey me, he growled. You’ll use the chamber pot because I command you to do so! You’ll have to hold me there and that just isn’t going to happen, Jessica argued. What is the difference between that and— Richard! He made a sound of impatience. ’Tis nothing to be ashamed of, Jessica. I would expect the same care from you. And if memory serves, I had it when I had the fever before. Isn’t that so? It was different. Aye, ’twas me with my arse bared to the daylight!
