00:30ORGAN PLAYS
01:00Our resident buffoon, old galloping major called Tufty Thessinger, wanted a helping hand.
01:24My boss says you've got your eyes on a likely piece of merchandise for us.
01:30Well, what's his style, then, Mr. Boris?
01:35He's a real flash Harry.
01:37Exactly.
01:38Not your commoner garden Russian granite face at all.
01:40During the day, he fulfills his norm like the rest of his mob.
01:43There's a whole mixed bag of technical advisors here.
01:46Bodishes with silver engineers.
01:47Come nightfall, he makes his own arrangements.
01:55That's just a mask that clubs as if there's never going to be another tomorrow.
01:58The man hasn't slept for a week, and my boys are folding at the knees.
02:03A young muscovite with official connections and that kind of appetite for the fleshpots seems right for the picking.
02:09Oh, he was another defector, can't he?
02:17Absolutely.
02:18Got to keep in stock.
02:20Nothing else on him apart from the boot.
02:22I've got something to blackmail him on.
02:24I would hardly need London to come and fix it.
02:27Good on.
02:31Temper, temper, Tufty.
02:32Temper, temper, Tufty.
03:02How are you?
03:13You think the Russians is a proven company?
03:20You're wrong, as the Chinese, all miserable boiler suits and the smallest company for the biggest number.
03:26Not for me.
03:27Forrest looks after number one, like any real person in the white world over.
03:31You know, it's nice talking to you like this.
03:34Some people, when I say from Moscow, I see this look in their faces.
03:39It's so funny.
03:40I know what they're thinking.
03:41Russia, oh my God, he's got his Dr. René.
03:43Put our chips in his little black hook.
03:46And then the awful man with the black hats and the black overcooks.
03:49He'll come, come, come, come, come at the door at the end of the night.
03:51And they'll say, Boris is your good friend, Russia.
03:54You're going to tell us all about this secret sex life, the member of Parliament and the mayor.
04:01Let me get you all another drink.
04:03Yes, yes, yes.
04:04Please, be my guest.
04:04Waiter.
04:05Lágrimas traduzem lamento.

05:10Amor, scusame, si je t'entendu, amor, scusame,
05:21non ho capito de la siente, io soffrirai.
05:34Amor, scusame, si tu lo piensas, seras mi corazón.
05:57And I am telling you, we're definitely in the wrong ballgame with this, chummy.
06:07That's a professional, a Moscow-centre trained hood.
06:14Well, he sets himself.
06:16That alone.
06:17Well, if you're right.
06:26Okay, you know.
06:34He's going to be quite a cat, wouldn't he?
06:35We scalp-hunters are expressly forbidden to trawl for double agents, new orders from above.
06:43With the first smell of the opposition, abandon and drop hot potato into ample lap of London Station.
06:51Nope, I'm cabling Willem no-sale and booking myself a flight home.
06:56Okie-dokie, Ricky.
06:57And since the job is finished,
07:02let us seed it, so to speak.
07:15Nags me a bit, though, this Boris.
07:18Makes his rounds every night, does he?
07:21Never missed yet.
07:23I told you, my boys...
07:25Well, before I go, I might just take a peep inside Boris's kennel.
07:32See what's under the mattress.
07:34Can't be any harm in that, can there?
07:37Orders is orders.
07:39I like keeping my hand in.
07:41It's been quiet lately.
07:44You can get rusty.
07:47Well, enjoy yourself, my son.
07:50But don't break any eggs, Ricky, please.
07:53I have to live here.
07:56Remember?
07:57Remember?
08:27I don't know.
08:57I don't know.
09:27I don't know.
09:28I don't know.
09:29I don't know.
09:30I don't know.
09:31I don't know.
09:32I don't know.
09:33I don't know.
09:35Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain...
09:39Boris?
09:41Good question, lady.
09:42Where is Boris?
09:43This is his room, right?
09:46Believe me, lady, I wish you no harm.
09:49I'm sorry if I frightened you.
09:51You caught me by surprise.
09:52I can tell you I wasn't expecting a lady, just Boris.
09:55I'm his wife.
09:56What are you doing here?
09:57No, look, I don't want to upset you.
09:58Does my husband know you?
09:59No point in pussyfooting, lady.
10:01Well, it's this way.
10:02Your Boris walked off with my girl tonight, and that's one diabolical liberty.
10:05And to add insult to injury, he'd been drinking on my wife.
10:08So I thought I'd come up here and have a word with Boris.
10:11Sorry, but that's the way it is.
10:16Thanks for not screaming the place down.
10:23You should be careful what you say about my husband.
10:26He's an important man.
10:29He has influential friends.
10:32You frightened me off, Mrs. Boris.
10:34I've got quite a name for looking after myself.
10:37I'm your original Australian self-made success story.
10:41Rags to riches and punching all the way.
10:44Bureaucrats don't scare me, not even the bloody Russian kind.
10:48Don't call me Mrs. Boris.
10:50My name's Irina.
10:52I'm Tony Lawrence.
10:55Are you?
10:56Yeah, Tony Lawrence.
10:57You just mentioned that name in Adelaide.
10:59I mean, car sales, property, frozen foods.
11:02You know, if I was Boris, I wouldn't be out at night chasing other blokes' women.
11:06I wouldn't feel the need.
11:09Berries is Berries.
11:15And Lawrence...
11:17Someone else.
11:18Someone else.
11:22I don't know anything about Australia.
11:26Perhaps somewhere tomorrow.
11:27Or evening.
11:28I don't know anything about Australia.
11:41Perhaps somewhere tomorrow.
11:45Or evening.
11:47Or even?!
11:48I don't know anything about Australia.
12:02I think, man...
12:04As you mentioned earlier, I said, it's not much fun, but...
12:06No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
12:36No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
13:06No, no, no, no, no, no.
13:08No, no, no, no, no.
13:10No, no, no, no, no, no.
13:12No, no, no, no, no.
13:14No, no, no, no, no.
13:16No, no, no.
13:18No, no, no.
13:20No, no, no, no.
13:22No, no, no, no.
13:24No, no, no.
13:26No, no, no, no.
13:28No, no, no.
13:30No, no, no, no.
13:32No, no, no, no.
13:34No, no, no.
13:36No, no, no.
13:38No, no.
13:50I wanted to escape from it.
13:51Textiles.
13:52It's like a prison.
13:57I need someone to help me.
14:00You can be quite brave, Lawrence.
14:02Tony!
14:04I shall call you Lawrence.
14:07Colonel Lawrence.
14:11Like Lawrence of Arabia?
14:14He was English.
14:17I know.
14:22There's an English expression.
14:32It takes one to spot one.
14:36You wouldn't have fooled me for long.
14:39Even without putting those wedges in the door.
14:44It's the way we look for things, isn't it?
14:48We don't stare.
14:50We don't seem to be looking.
14:52We are not like tourists.
14:54Or prostitutes.
14:56Or pickpockets.
14:58We just know how to see.
15:03Maurice isn't as good as he ought to be.
15:05He enjoys showing off too much, so he misses things.
15:09He missed you, didn't he?
15:10But you didn't miss him, did you, Colonel?
15:18Are you very good?
15:20The best.
15:21God gave me all the talents.
15:24Try me.
15:25I like being in the prisons of Christianity.
15:40I understand why some women become names.
15:48Give themselves.
15:50Their whole lives given.
15:51Willingly.
15:56There's freedom in that.
16:05I've met Christians I've envied very deeply.
16:10Envy is a sin, I know that.
16:12But I confess it here in this holy place.
16:15Their Christians were being interrogated.
16:22The worst time to see people.
16:26And the best sometimes.
16:31I'm studying the Bible.
16:33Secretly, of course.
16:34That isn't freedom.
16:35Come on to me.
16:39All you who are heavy laden.
16:42Is that it?
16:46Do you know how it goes on?
16:55There's a village below here, right by the sea.
16:58Very quiet.
17:00We could take a room.
17:02Would you like that?
17:03You could never lead me.
17:31You could take a room.
17:32How long have you worked with Boris?
17:42They made us a team a long time ago.
17:47He's a specialist in picking up foreign businessmen from Moscow Center.
17:53I look after communications for him, for special calls.
17:57Couldn't we be a team?
18:06You could take me to England.
18:12That's what I want, Lawrence.
18:15You could.
18:27I know something.
18:42Something so important.
18:46It's one of the biggest secrets ever.
18:48It would make you so famous.
18:59But it's so secret.
19:12Tell me.
19:15Tell me, Irene.
19:18I'm frightened.
19:22I can look after you.
19:23You'll be safe.
19:25I can only speak to your chief.
19:27I mean, Aliline, nobody else.
19:29It's too dangerous.
19:30I can only speak to Aliline.
19:32Tell me.
19:34Only the head of the circus.
19:38I've got to go back now.
19:42They'll be looking for me.
19:43There's too much to talk now.
19:51Maybe tomorrow.
19:53Okay.
19:56Cemetery.
20:01Come on, Lawrence.
20:03We can talk in the car.
20:04Tomorrow.
20:08There's too much.
20:11Be calm.
20:14Tonight they'll notice.
20:15I drink too much sometimes.
20:28They are used to that.
20:32Some of the priests are drunkards.
20:35They told me that at school.
20:37I drink too much.
20:38I can't.
20:41I drink too much.
20:46I don't know.
20:49Iалеine, honey.
20:50I don't remember.
20:53I don't know.
20:54I don't know.
20:55I don't know.
20:56I don't know.
20:57You know, you.
20:58No.
21:00You're hungry.
21:01No.
21:02When I was still in Moscow, before I started travelling with Paris,
21:27I had a relationship with a filing clerk at the centre,
21:31in Dzerzhinsky Square.
21:35We went against regulations we used to meet outside.
21:39He was very sweet.
21:42Your looks remind me of him.
21:46His name was Evlov, and he told me a story.
21:53He was frightened, too.
21:54But sometimes, if you know something that's so big, so secret, you have to tell it to someone.
22:03It has to be someone you love.
22:06I can't be telling you now.
22:08It's all right, darling.
22:10It's all right.
22:11Have you heard of Carla?
22:18He's an old fox, the most cunning of them all at the centre.
22:22And he works so secretly that some people don't even know he exists.
22:26This story Evlov told me concerns one of Carla's greatest conspiracies.
22:35And it is happening in England.
22:39Do you know what is meant by the word mole?
22:44Yes.
22:45Moles burrow very deep into the fabric of Western imperialism.
22:48They are very deep to Moscow Centre, because it may take 15 or even 20 years before they are used.
22:58Well, my friend Evlov told me he had worked in London.
23:02His cover was as a driver at the embassy.
23:08Do you have a name to give me?
23:12Evlov's work name in London was La Pange.
23:14He didn't know it meant rabbit in French.
23:21It fitted because at the embassy he was supposed to be just a nobody, serving drinks with women at receptions.
23:31But all the time, he was the secret right-hand man to Colonel Grigor Viktorov.
23:38And Viktorov is the agent who briefs and debriefs them all.
23:44His name, Irina.
23:50In London, Viktorov's cover is cultural attaché, known as Valyakov.
24:02I'm so frightened, so tired.
24:07You must take me home with you.
24:09Finish the story.
24:14Who's the mole?
24:16Where is he?
24:19I can only speak to Alala.
24:22We are in danger.
24:23You must get me to him.
24:25Face to face with the head of the circus.
24:27Nothing else is safe.
24:32You trust me, don't you?
24:36I want you.
24:40Alala will take some persuading.
24:49Tell him I have information crucial to the well-being of the circus.
24:56Use those words.
25:06Good morning, Tufty.
25:16Can I come and play with your toys?
25:19I thought we'd finish your holes, Ricky.
25:22But must they be sinking back home?
25:25It'll be all right.
25:26Got a postcard to send them.
25:28They're going to love me for it.
25:36How much are you going to tell me?
25:47The message is graded flash to London station and by hand of duty officer only.
25:57Drastic stuff, eh?
25:59That's maximum security limit.
26:05What did you get on, Boris?
26:07Yes.
26:12It's your show, my son.
26:13Nothing for you, Ricky.
26:31Nothing for you, Ricky.
26:43Again.
27:01Supply date of intake into Moscow's centre.
27:24Name her present head of section.
27:26Also name previous sections employing her.
27:29So, someone's stalling.
27:36But if that's what they want...
27:59...you can't do it.
28:06You can't do it.
28:08You can't do it.
28:10You can't do it.
28:14You can't do it.
28:20You can't do it.
28:24You can't do it.
28:31You can't do it.
28:33You can't do it.
28:39You can't do it.
28:42You can't do it.
28:44I would prefer to give you my life, Lawrence.
28:47But I think it's more likely that this wretched secret will be all I have to make you happy.
28:53Use it well.
28:54I started to tell you about Evlov, who's known in London or used to be as Lapin.
29:02And about Viktorov, who's really Palyakov.
29:08The mole in London is known by the code name of Gerald.
29:17There are many remarkable measures to preserve his security, the most secret imaginable.
29:23Written reports from Gerald to Karla in Moscow center are cut in two and sent by separate couriers, even after coding.
29:33And Gerald's output has sometimes been almost too much for Palyakov to handle.
29:39Some of it is spoken onto tape at secret meetings, and can only be played back on special machines.
29:46And there is also undeveloped film, and anyone opening the reels the wrong way destroys it immediately.
29:53Lawrence, this is the secret I'm giving you, with all my love.
30:02The mole Gerald is a high functionary in British intelligence, very close to the head of the circus.
30:11Lawrence, I fear for the safety of anyone employed by the circus.
30:15Lawrence, take care with this knowledge.
30:24I'm telling you this because I'm afraid it's all finished for me.
30:29The guards have started watching me like animals.
30:33Have you been indiscreet, Lawrence?
30:36Did you tell them in London more than you let me think?
30:40Now you understand why only Aleline would do.
30:45But do not blame yourself.
30:47Will they let us live in Scotland, Lawrence?
31:04I've read everything about Scotland.
31:08It's the Garden of Eden, isn't it?
31:10Well, there's a bit at the end, Richard.
31:18Read it.
31:19In my heart, I am free.
31:24Deep inside me burns a new and blessed light.
31:28I used to think that the secret world was a separate place, and I was banished forever to an island of half-people.
31:34But God has shown me we have only to open the door and step outside to be free.
31:38Lawrence, you must always long for the light which I have found.
31:43It is called love.
31:46Now I shall take this to our secret place while there is still time.
31:58Lawrence, why could you remember so few prayers from your childhood?
32:01Your father must have been a great and good man.
32:06And that's it.
32:08See, she was great.
32:14I take it that's not the original notebook.
32:16No, sir.
32:17Where is it?
32:18Well, I put it straight back in the dead letterbox once I'd copied.
32:21And then?
32:22I had this idea I'd try the airport.
32:24You know, just on the off chance.
32:26Well, put it this way, sir.
32:27I had to know.
32:30I got hold of a little Italian air hostess, and she liked the look of me, see.
32:34She told me an unscheduled Soviet plane had taken off two or three hours.
32:38before.
32:38The center of attraction was a woman invalid, lady in a coma.
32:42They had to cart her to the plane on a stretcher, and her face was wrapped in bandages.
32:46The rest of the party was made up of two male nurses and a doctor.
32:51And I didn't let her go at that, Mr. Smiley.
32:54No, I checked the hotel.
32:55She's right.
32:56No Irina, no Boris.
32:59My musical daughters.
33:22Perhaps she really was ill.
33:24Not much more than 24 hours between your first telegram and Irina's departure.
33:32You can hardly lay it at London's door on that timing.
33:35Well, you can, just, if someone in London had very good footwork.
33:40And in Moscow, too, of course.
33:41That's what I told myself, sir. I mean what you said. My very words, Mr. Smythe.
33:46Well, I figured the Russian's going to tumble to it about her having it off with me,
33:50or, well, she'd started blabbing to Boris just to pay him off for boozing and whoring all the time.
33:56But then I thought, no, come on, Ricky. That was gold she was giving you.
34:00Remember how she had to sweat it out of herself.
34:04I figured they'd give her another going over on the plane,
34:06and the big boys would pile in first thing after touchdown.
34:09I figured not more than a day or two before Moscow sent her head a foot pad right at the cemetery.
34:14So you made yourself scarce.
34:16He panicked and went native. Istanbul, so he says.
34:19Playing the loving father with a daughter called Danny.
34:23That's right. Danny's my little kid.
34:25The mother seems to be leader of the pack, as far as his numerous wives are concerned just now.
34:30You've been away for three months.
34:32Why choose this particular moment to come to us?
34:40Go on.
34:41Well, I reckon Lawrence wasn't exactly the flavour of the month in Moscow, so I had that run up.
35:11It's not bad for the money.
35:14When he went to Lisbon, he had two Swiss escapes.
35:16One for him, one for Boris.
35:18What did you do with them?
35:22How did you get rid of them?
35:23Burn them.
35:28And how did you get back to England?
35:31Soft route via Dublin. I've given Mr. Quillen the details.
35:34I'm doing what I can to check.
35:35Well, you be damn careful, baby, because I don't want the wrong people on my back.
35:40Took my gun away, too.
35:42Now, he shouldn't have done that, should he, Mr. Smiley?
35:44Why did you go to Mr. Quillen?
35:49Didn't it cross your mind he might turn you straight over to Al-Aline?
35:52Mr. Quillen's my boss.
35:56Besides, I don't figure he's got any more liking for the new arrangements at the circus than you have, Mr. Smiley.
36:01We don't need that tarp.
36:03He kept well out of sight.
36:05As soon as he gave me his story, I rang Sir Oliver from a call box.
36:08I rang him here, not London.
36:13Well, damn it, there was no reason to suppose the phone was tapped.
36:17There was every reason.
36:24It's very unusual for Moscow Centre to use a husband and wife team.
36:31Hard to believe.
36:34Unless, of course, they had children in Moscow.
36:39Hostages.
36:39They have.
36:40It's true.
36:42Common law marriage.
36:43Unofficial, but permanent.
36:45There's a lot the other way around these days, believe it or not, Mr. Smiley.
36:54Fit, George.
36:57Natter.
36:59Garden.
37:00Super.
37:01Come on.
37:18When you came to me six months ago talking about a mole in the circus, I'm afraid I threw you out.
37:25I was remiss.
37:27You instructed me to abandon my inquiries because they were unconstitutional.
37:33Oh, is that the word I used?
37:36How very pompous of me.
37:37You never had any, did you?
37:43What?
37:45Children.
37:47You and Anne.
37:49No.
37:49I have to admit, I have to admit, I didn't absolutely trust your motives.
37:55I rather thought Control had put you up to it, you see, as a way of hanging on to the power, keeping Percy Allerline out.
38:02There are three of them.
38:04There are three of them.
38:05And Alerline.
38:06And Alerline.
38:06Control's words, the composition of the now all-powerful London station.
38:13Bill Hayden, Roy Bland, Toby Estahazy, three of them.
38:19and Amelie.
38:22Yes, quite, but at the time, George,
38:25after all, we both held perfectly honourable positions.
38:29You felt Jim Predow had been betrayed
38:31in that shoot-up in Czechoslovakia
38:32and you wanted a witch-hunt.
38:34My minister and I felt there'd been gross incompetence
38:36on the part of control.
38:37We wanted a new broom,
38:39a view which the Foreign Office shared, to put it mildly.
38:42Oh, I quite understand your dilemma.
38:47It isn't every day the head of one's secret service
38:49embarks on a private war against the Czechs.
38:52And don't forget, George,
38:54you were control's man.
38:56He preferred you to Hayden.
38:58When he lost his grip and launched that extraordinary misadventure,
39:01it was you who fronted for him.
39:03You were in the hot seat. You had to go.
39:05It wasn't as if you offered a suspect.
39:13Remember the circumstances, George.
39:19All in all, I'd say Percy Allerline has done extremely well.
39:23With Bill Hayden to field for him, who wouldn't?
39:26He's produced intelligence instead of scandal
39:28and won the trust of his customers.
39:31That special source of Percy's,
39:34it produced the witchcraft material.
39:36Is that still running?
39:38Since you ask, yes.
39:40Source Merlin is our mainstay.
39:42And, yes, the name of his product is witchcraft.
39:45The circus hasn't produced such good material in living memory.
39:49In mine, anyway.
39:51Does it still get the same special handling?
39:54Certainly.
39:56And now precautions will have to be more rigorous than ever, won't they?
39:59No, Gerald the Mole would soon latch on to that.
40:03Of course he would.
40:05We can't move, can we?
40:08We can't investigate because we can't employ the circus.
40:11We can't eavesdrop or wot or open mail because to do any of that,
40:15we need the services of Esther Hayes' lamplighters.
40:18And Esther Hayes is suspect like the others.
40:22It's the oldest question of all, George.
40:26Who can spy on the spies?
40:28Yes, get the security mob in.
40:32They'll do a job for you.
40:33No, the minister won't have that.
40:35Rightly, too.
40:37A lot of ex-colonial bobbies flying through the circus files.
40:42It's a serious point, George.
40:44We do have agents in the field,
40:46and I wouldn't give much for their chances
40:47once the security gentlemen come barging in.
40:50How many do we have?
40:53600.
40:55Give what take of you.
40:55Plus 120 behind the outcome.
41:09So I can't tell the minister you'll do it, can I?
41:12You'll take the job, clean the stables,
41:14go backwards, go forwards,
41:16do whatever's necessary.
41:18It's your generation, after all.
41:19You're a legacy.
41:22I never heard of anyone yet
41:24who'd left the circus without some unfinished business.
41:28There's no emotional or other reason
41:32which you feel might debar you from the assignment.
41:34You must speak up, George.
41:40The state of my marriage must be very common knowledge
41:43if it's got as far down the line as Ricky Tarr.
41:46For the record, the thing with Anne and Bill Hayden is long over.
41:50My wife's present infatuation is with a young actor,
41:55currently unemployed.
41:56There's always that part of us that belongs to the public domain, isn't it?
42:04You always knew that, I'm sure.
42:07So did Jim Predo.
42:08What does that mean?
42:10Well, good Lord, George,
42:11a bullet in the back is held to be quite a sacrifice, isn't it?
42:14Even in your world.
42:16Two bullets, actually.
42:17Okay.
42:17They were at Oxford together, weren't they?
42:23Bill and Jim.
42:25And stablemates at the circus,
42:27the famous Hayden-Predo partnership.
42:30The iron fist in the iron glove, somebody once called it.
42:35Predo was far too old for that Czechoslovakian nonsense.
42:38It made no difference.
42:39Oh.
42:40Why?
42:47I shall need some help.
42:50Remember Control's man, Mendel?
42:52Yes, of course.
42:55If he's the chap, he won't.
43:18Oh, Lord.
43:21The table's Georgian,
43:23so you will love it for me, won't you, Mr. Barraclough?
43:27I shouldn't lend it to you, really.
43:30It was the Majors.
43:31I'm very grateful, I'm sure.
43:33Everything all right, Mr. Barraclough?
43:34Yes, fine.
43:35We'll leave you in peace, then.
43:47I'm sure you want every scrap.
44:04And you've known me long enough.
44:07Times of entry and exit, who comes, who goes,
44:10and most of all, more important than you can possibly imagine, this.
44:14Any suspicious characters taking an interest
44:17or putting questions to your staff under any pretext,
44:20even if they say they're the guards' armoured
44:22and Sherlock Holmes rolled into one.
44:23It's only me and Norman, Inspector.
44:26And they won't get far with Norman, will they, dear?
44:29You're too sensitive.
44:35Same with any incoming letters for you.
44:37I shall want to see postmarks and times posted, where legible.
44:41And one thing more.
44:42There'll be objects, which now and again
44:44he's going to ask to be lodged in the safe.
44:46Mainly there'll be papers.
44:48And there's only one person allowed to look at those objects
44:50apart from him, and that's me.
44:53Don't try fiddling with him, because he's sharp.
44:56And you've known me long enough.
44:58Now, Ricky Tower's cables to the circus were detailed and specific.
45:17He was required by London Station to submit copious background on Irina.
45:22Names of former contacts, acquaintances inside Moscow Centre.
45:26There should be a file of some size, and we need to see it.
45:32That's circus material, George.
45:34I can deliver only from the minister.
45:36I know that look, George.
45:45I'm breaking into the circus, am I?
45:47Playing burglar bill.
45:48If you wouldn't mind, Peter.
45:50And while you're enjoying yourself, I shall visit Oxford
45:52to look up an old and invaluable friend.
45:56Please, don't take any unnecessary risks.
46:09Lord, now lettest thou thy servant's departure in peace.
46:20According to thy word.
46:39For my eyes have seen thy salvation
46:56Which now has prepared me for the face
47:07Of all people
47:14To be a light
47:22To lighten the chances
47:30And to be the glory
47:35Of thy people
47:39Israel
47:44Israel
47:54Do they be to the Father
47:57And to the Son
48:01And to the Holy Ghost
48:05As it was in the beginning
48:09Is now
48:12And ever shall be
