[00:01.16]In the spring of 1936，Mrs Simpson wrote a letter to her husband． 
1936年春天，辛普森夫人给她丈夫写了一封信。 
[00:07.21]Dear Ernest, she wrote. You have been very kind to me. You are a good and strong man. But I must tell you that our marriage is finished. 
“亲爱的欧内斯特，”她写道，“你一直待我很好。你心地善良，性格坚强。但我不得不告诉你，我们的婚姻结束了。
[00:21.00]I am in love with the King and I want a divorce. Dont be angry. There is nothing you can do. Ill never forget you, but I have to be free. 
我爱上了国王，我想和你离婚。请不要生气。你无能为力了。我永远不会忘记你，但我必须得到自由。” 
[00:37.24]Ernest replied immediately: Your letter arrived this morning. I will do what you ask, but Ill never stop loving you. And if you need me, Ill always be here. 
欧内斯特立刻回了信：“你的信是今早到的。我答应你的要求，但我永远不会停止对你的爱。如果你需要我，我随时都会帮忙。” 
[00:54.26]That night the King and Wallis met at a small restaurant in Piccadilly. Edward read Ernests letter again and again. Thats wonderful news, he said. Nothing can stop us now! 
那天晚上，国王和沃利斯在皮卡迪里的一家小餐馆见了面。爱德华一遍又一遍地读欧内斯特的信。“这消息太好了，”他说，“现在没有什么能够阻碍我们了。” 
[01:13.21]The next day, when Edward came down to breakfast, Gordon Lang, the Archbishop of Canterbury, was waiting for him. 
第二天，爱德华下楼吃早饭的时候，发现坎特伯雷大主教戈登·朗正在等他。 
[01:22.21]Good morning, Gordon, the King said. How nice to see you again. And what can I do for you? 
“早上好，戈登，”国王说，“又见到您真好。我能为您做些什么？” 
[01:29.11]For a minute the Archbishop said nothing. Then he opened a small black bag and took out three newspapers. 
大主教沉默了片刻，然后打开一个小黑包，取出3份报纸。
[01:39.56]I have come to see you about Mrs Wallis Simpsonn, he began. The newspapers say that you want to marry her. Are these stories true, Sir? 
“我来见您是为了沃利斯·辛普森夫人的事，”他开口说，“报上说您要娶她为妻。这是真的吗，陛下？” 
[01:54.30]Yes, Gordon, Wallis is going to be my wife. 
“是的，戈登，沃利斯将成为我的妻子。” 
[02:00.41]But thats not possible, the Archbishop replied. You know what the Church thinks about marriage and divorce. Di－vorce is wrong in the eyes of God! 
“但那是不可能的，”大主教说，“您知道教会对婚姻和离婚的看法。在上帝眼里，离婚是错误的！” 
[02:15.24]Edward smiled and then said：Can I ask you some ques－tions about God, Mr Lang? 
爱德华笑了，然后说：“我能问您一些有关上帝的问题吗，朗先生？” 
[02:22.59]Yes, of course, Sir. Is God happy when two people fall in love? 
“当然可以，陛下。” “当两个人相爱时，上帝高兴吗？” 
[02:29.52]Yes, Sir, but... 
“高兴，陛下，但是……” 
[02:31.46]And is God happy when two people fall in love and get married? 
“两个人相爱并结婚，上帝高兴吗？” 
[02:37.02]Yes，Sir，but... 
“高兴，陛下，但是……” 
[02:38.40]And is God happy when two people fall in love, get mar－ried, and live happily together? 
“两个人相爱、结婚、在一起幸福地生活，上帝高兴吗？” 
[02:47.09]Yes, Sir, but... 
“高兴，陛下，但是……” 
[02:49.18]Then, Archbishop, Wallis and I will make God very happy. We are in love, well get married, and well live to－gether happily! 
“那么，大主教，沃利斯和我会让上帝十分高兴的。我们相爱，我们要结婚，我们在一起生活会很幸福！” 
[03:05.29]But you dont understand, Sir, Mr Lang replied. The Church says that divorce is wrong. Mrs Simpson cannot leave Mr Simpson and then marry you. 
“但您不明白，陛下，”朗先生说，“教会认为离婚是错误的。辛普森夫人不能离开辛普森先生，然后和您结婚。
[03:20.02]You must forget about her and find another woman. Please, Sir, I must ask you to think again. 
您必须忘记她，去找另一个女子。陛下，我请求您三思。” 
[03:30.43]That is not possible, Edward said softly. When Wallis is free, I shall marry her. 
“这是不可能的，”爱德华轻轻地说，“沃利斯一离婚，我就娶她。” 
[03:41.50]There was a long silence. The Archbishop looked down at the floor and shook his head. Youre making a big mistake, Sir, he said. 
沉默了许久，大主教低头看着地板，摇了摇头。“您正在犯一个很大的错误，陛下，”他说，
[03:54.32]The Church is very strong, and we will not have this woman as our Queen! 
“教会是强有力的，我们不会让这个女人做我们的王后！” 
[04:03.02]Suddenly Edward stood up, his face red and angry. Thank you for coming, he said. But I have nothing more to say．And I want to be alone.
爱德华刷地站起身，脸色通红，怒容满面。“谢谢您的来访，”他说，“但我没什么可说的了。我想一个人待着。” 
[04:19.10]The Archbishop stood up to go, but then turned and touched the Kings arm. Please, Sir, think again. The Church will be against you. 
大主教站起身要走，但又回过头来，拍拍国王的手臂。“陛下，请您再想想。教会会反对您的。” 
[04:32.15]I dont care, Edward replied. I have God on my side, and that is all I need. Goodbye, Mr Lang. 
“我不在乎，”爱德华回答，“上帝会站在我这边，除此之外我不需要别的。再见，朗先生。”
