Only through searching penitence and the psalms that express this can he find him way back into the light. \nA world and centuries away, King Henry VIII looks up at his prized tapestries of David and Bathsheba and sees in David a mighty predecessor, defender of the faith. \nHenry\u2019s courtier-poet, Sir Thomas Wyatt, sees instead two kings who take what they want, careless of the lives they destroy in the process \u2014 David\u2019s lust led him to murder, while Henry is ruthless in his pursuit of Ann Boleyn and the son she has promised him \u2026 more ruthless still when she fails to provide an heir. \nWyatt too, once dangerously close.
