England nodded at his bosses cold words, orders of more attacks, more killing. They would finish off Spain next, as there was no point keeping him alive now.

England still felt resent toward Spain, with had been simmering since their pirating days, and he had known this would be the prefect oppertunity to act upon that, since it would be labled an act of war and nothing besides. He also knew that Francis would help the Spainiard in times of trouble, and hadn't yet decided if he wanted to kill the Frenchman or not. Certainly he would invade and take over, but they had been friends for a long time, so he wasn't sure how humane he would be about doing so. The best course of action would probably be to keep the French people alive to be citizens of England's new empire- it wasn't like he could really have an elite without citizens.
Here they talked of REVOLUTION.
Here it was they lit the flame.
Here they SANG about `tomorrow'
And tomorrow never came.

From the table in the corner
They could see a world REBORN
And they rose with voices ringing
I can HEAR them now!
The very words that they had sung
Became their LAST communion
On the lonely barricade at d a w n .~.Made by flight . thief.~
