Cilicia is being administered and defended by its own prince, who bears the same name or title as his predecessor in the days of Sennacherib, but is feudally accountable to the Great King.
"The Ancient East"
D. G. Hogarth
Will you hold it feudally from the Provost of Hammersmith?
"The Napoleon of Notting Hill"
Gilbert K. Chesterton
I have walked a mile or so before I at length decide upon a goal, toward which to tend-a lone and distant cottage, tenanted by a very aged, ignorant, and feudally loyal couple-a cottage sitting by the edge of a brown common-one of the few that the greedy hand of Tillage has yet spared-where geese may still stalk and hiss unreproved, and errant-tinker donkeys crop and nibble undisturbed- "Where the golden furze With its green thin spurs Doth catch at the maiden's gown."
"Nancy A Novel"
Rhoda Broughton
