Wife Princess Cui

Famous quotes containing the words wife and/or princess:

    Ah, gentle dames! it gars me greet,
    To think how mony counsels sweet,
    How mony lengthen’d, sage advices,
    The husband frae the wife despises!

    the local princess was having a contest.

    gargling the sea like soup.
