princeless (not comparable)

    • 1873?, Cora's Delusion
      Notwithstanding the round of pleasures in which she every summer took prominent part, she could not stifle her inward and continuous yearning for the music of a princely voice, the glance of devotion from princely eyes, the touch of a princely hand in the dance, and the sweet envy of all maidens who had to go princeless through life.
