"Weighed and Wanting"
George MacDonald
My realm, the centre of our Empery, Once lost, all Turkey would be overthrown; And for that cause the Christians shall have peace.
"Tamburlaine the Great, Part II."
Christopher Marlowe
So also is there a peculiar happiness in the use of "Empery."
"Oscar Wilde"
Leonard Cresswell Ingleby
