"Nay, Prince," said the young Queen, answering the adoring look in her lover's eyes, "your father took the kingdom; if I were you, I should take the Queen." Which was a bit forward, of course, but nobody minded that very much in those fairy times. So Desire and Marianna were married, and lived happily ever after.
