Not Your average Princess? “ I a Princess king-descended deckt with jewels, gilded, drest” “Would rather be a peasant with her baby at her breast”
Restricted Royalty “two and two my guards behind, two and two before, two and two on either hand” “Me, poor dove that must not coo- eagle that must not soar”
Mirror...Mirror...Mirror “ All my walls are lost in mirrors” “ A mirror showed me I look old and haggard in the face
Loneliness “Alone by day , alone by night, alone days without end” “ There I sit uplift and upright, there I sit alone”
Starvation, Inequality, Poverty “Men with hearts and men with souls, though trodden down like mud” “sit on your throne an roast with your crown upon your head”
Where’s the Compassion? “O my father ! Oh my mother! Have you ne’er a friend? “I, if I perish, perish; they today shall eat and live”
