[It's something like a cultural difference. A very complicated cultural difference with many layers to it.]
And I am to be the judge of whether you speak too long. [Whether he lost interest and grew bored or simply had something he wanted to say, it would be rather obvious to her that he wanted to speak. He has no trouble being blunt in that way.] I have not deemed it so, but I have judged you to be guilty of apologizing when it is not warranted.
If I tell you to speak, speak and I will let you know when I have heard enough. If I tell you that you have wronged or insulted me, I anticipate then you will make amends as one should when insulting a king.
