procuress

A procuress then, who lived on the Pont des Tournelles, was visited one day by a knight, who put a ring into her hands.

Instead of returning me to my home, the procuress left me in an isolated dwelling not far from Versailles.

When the lady arrives, the introduction takes place, and the business is transacted, as far as the procuress is concerned.

A cuckoo, her throat still happy from tasting all sorts of fruit-syrups, is cooing like a procuress.

He curses a certain procuress, whom he overhears instructing his mistress in the arts of a courtesan.
