Now here is a man, who actually thinks that dapper little prude more beautiful than her queenlike cousin; a woman that to me-a man of true taste and experience-is known to possess qualities-ah!
"The White Gauntlet"
Mayne Reid
Dowered with the beauty of her twenty years, How ladylike, how queenlike she appears; The pale, thin crescent of the days gone by Is Dian now in all her majesty!
"The Complete Poetical Works of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow"
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Marion Sanford was a marked woman in general society, a woman who reigned, queenlike, over every heart; but, among the circle of her relatives, the uncles and aunts and cousins who lived within the sphere of her attractions, she was held to be little less than the angels.
"Marion's Faith."
Charles King
