Roberta Jellis. Dragon and Rose (№ 424598)

People can be led astray by a few wicked people who have played on their fear. Some thought that in the future I would treat them harshly and unfairly because in the past they were on the side of my enemy. It's not true. The past is the past. All Englishmen, Northerners and Southerners, from the east or from the west, are perceived in my heart equally as my subjects. So this time I demonstrated mercy and loving forgiveness. This time! But the innocent and guilty need to know that mercy is not a weakness, and what was once seen as stupidity will not be considered stupid again.
