Even at that, the rates were mostly pink collar and the big number was attributed to the husbands pain and suffering.”

“Let me have
A dram of poison, such soon-speeding gear
As will disperse itself through all the veins
That the life-weary taker may fall dead,
And that the trunk may be discharged of breath
As violently as hasty powder fired
Doth hurry from the fatal cannons womb.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
