Some are making love, a sovran means of killing time, whether one be born that day or twenty years ago.

Just as the stolen potato is sovran for rheumatism, so "rue stolen thriveth the best."

It does upset one's ideas and unsettle one's principles when sovran woman has nothing for one but bonnet-pins.

Fairest of gems he bore with him over the beaker-of-waves, sovran strong: under shield he died.
