Rudyard Kipling,
The Ballad of the King's Daughter
(1884)
“ And the warm blood flushed through the Monarch's daughter, And lo! she fell on his neck with a cry. Many there be by land and water, (Wait and watch ye patiently) That gave their love to a Monarch's daughter, That bound their heart in the days gone by. Hope is little by land or water, Wait and watch ye patiently. Gold wins not a Monarch's daughter, Neither jewels nor bravery. Get ye fame by land and water, That your name live and do not die, And ye win the love of a Monarch's daughter... ”
