It closed to the general public on September 7, 2008, and was open only to school groups until March 2009.

While everyone else watched Fly's journey with excitement, Red Riding Hood was wracked with anxiety and feared for Flycatcher's life, often bemoaning the amount of danger that Flycatcher often found himself in. She kept his favorite hat with her at all times, hoping to return it to him when his quest was over. After Fly's kingdom was established and became safe, Boy Blue brought Ride along with him so she could move there. Upon arriving, she told Fly that she would fill in the roles of Royal Hostess and take on queenly responsibilities until Flycatcher could find himself a proper queen.

At first John joins the Irvine rabble in persecuting Elspeth and the Buchanites, a revivalist sect who believe they are the elect living in the Last Days, shortly to be translated en bloc to Heaven without tasting death. In reality John is secretly fascinated by Buchan's teaching that wedlock is now abolished and that men and women may couple freely. Elspeth one day finds him spying, asks him why he persecutes her, takes his hands in hers and quotes some erotic lines from The Song of Songs. He is struck by her fine eyes, coils of black hair and queenly bearing.

Some scholars such as Jhon Irwin emphasized a reassessment from popular belief of Persian or Greek origin of Ashokan pillars. He makes the argument that ashokan pillars represent Dhvaja or standard which Indian soldiers carried with them during battle and it was believed that the destruction of the enemy's dhvaja brought misfortune to their opponents. A relief of Bharhut stupa railing portrays a queenly personage on horseback carrying a Garudadhvaja. Heliodorus pillar has been called Garudadhvaja, literally Garuda-standard, the pillar dated to 2nd century BC is perhaps the earliest recorded stone pillar which has been declared a dhvaja.

On 27 August 1310, Archbishop Thomas put the Holy Crown on Charles' head in Székesfehérvár; thus, Charles' third coronation was performed in full accordance with customary law. For his loyalty and service, Dominic Rátót was made treasurer of the queenly court of Charles' wife Mary of Bytom. Two documents from August and November 1313 (the latter was preserved from only 18th-century transcriptions) mentioned him in this capacity, but it is possible that he already held the dignity since 1310. When James Borsa rebelled against the king in late 1314 or early 1315, he was dismissed as Palatine by Charles.

The river was among those mentioned by Hesiod in Theogony; they were "all sons of Oceanus and queenly Tethys" for, according to the image of world hydrography common to the ancients, the fresh water that welled up in springs came from the underworld caverns and pools and was connected with the salt sea. Rain fertilized crops, but the sense that its runoff filled the rivers did not figure in the Greek mythic picture. Rivers were personified and credited with wooing nymphs and human maidens and fathering children. One daughter, the nymph Metope was wed to the river Asopus.

According to the account of the late Paul Balog's namesake nephew, then a canon at Veszprém, his own damages amounted to around 4,000 marks, including the loss of his books (1000 marks), which he "inherited from his progenitors". Vékony argued these manuscripts and chronicles were initially part of the elder Paul's collection, who used these works for writing the Gesta Hungarorum. Vékony claimed Paul Balog (Anonymus) knew and despised the gesta of his contemporary Ákos. Also a former chancellor in the queenly court, they had personal conflicts each other, in addition to various lawsuits between the Diocese of Veszprém and the Provostry of Óbuda (where Ákos was provost) over numerous possessions.

The absence of the title King's Daughter for her indicates that Sitre was of non-royal descent.Nos ancêtres de l'Antiquité, 1991, Christian Settipani, p.176 She did hold a large number of titles. She was a Hereditary Princess (iryt-p`t), a Great King’s Mother (mwt-niswt-wrt), also described as a God’s Mother (mwt-ntr). Her queenly titles included Lady of The Two Lands (nbt-t3wy), King’s Wife (hmt-nisw), Great King’s Wife, his beloved (hmt-niswt-wrt meryt.f) and Mistress of Upper and Lower Egypt (hnwt- Shm’w-mhw). She also held the title of God’s Wife (hmt-ntr).W. Grajetzki: Ancient Egyptian Queens: a hieroglyphic dictionary.

Pope Alexander IV confirmed this donation of land on 13 February 1255. Upon his request, Pope Innocent IV permitted him on 1 February 1252 to apply for other ecclesiastical and secular dignities, in addition to retaining his provostship, but there is no source for Lawrence's other positions in that period. By the 1260s, Lawrence was employed in the retinue of Queen Maria Laskarina, wife of Béla IV. He functioned as vice- chancellor of the queenly court in 1268. Alongside Csák, son of Demetrius Csák, Lawrence acted as an arbiter in a lawsuit between the queen's servants and the Berki family over a land Deszka near Tárnok Valley, commissioned by Queen Maria, in November 1268.

Olga was noted for her dignity and queenly demeanor. On a visit by the royal couple to Austria in July, 1873, a lady-in-waiting to Empress Elisabeth of Austria noted, "He is most insignificant. She makes a most imposing appearance ... the only one who is a queen ..."Marie Festetics, diary entry for 14 July 1873, quoted in Brigitte Hamann, The Reluctant Empress, (Knopf, 1986, New York, p. 206.) In 1881, Olga wrote a memoir called Traum der Jugend goldener Stern (translated as The Golden Dream of My Youth) which described her childhood in the Russian court, her grief at the loss of her sister Alexandra, and her early adult life, ending with her wedding to Charles.

This chapter is a telling of the story of Vashti, the commission and painting of a set of wedding trunks by Filippino Lippi that include Queen Vashti Leaves the Royal Palace (1480), and the history of the trunks since then. The Queen's beauty is so coveted and awesome that she is able to break from many queenly traditions, but ultimately her disobedience as a woman leads to her exile. Filippino is a precocious young painter who impresses the Jewish family commissioning the wedding trunks depicting the story of the Book of Esther. Between the two trunks, he paints five out of the six in the style of the workshop's master Sandro Botticelli.

Following that Serbia started to disintegrate after the death of Stefan Dušan in December 1355. A new war broke out between the Kingdom of Hungary and the Republic of Venice over Dalmatia in the spring of 1356 and the royal court decided to end the duchy of Slavonia's autonomy, Margaret was thus deprived of nominal regency. Despite his military success a few weeks ago, Nicholas was also dismissed from his dignity, replaced by Leustach Paksi. In the next year, he was appointed Master of the treasury in the court of Elizabeth of Bosnia, the second queen consort to Louis I. Beside that he also functioned as ispán of the Segesd queenly estate, laid in Somogy County.

In a paper published in July, 2015, Reeves drew attention for the first time to distinct linear traces visible in high-resolution surface scans of the painted surfaces of the Burial Chamber within Tutankhamun's tomb. He argued that these linear traces may represent the "ghosts" of two hitherto unrecognized doorways giving access to: (1) a still unexplored storage chamber on the west of room J, seemingly contemporary with the stocking of Tutankhamun's burial; and (2) a pre-Tutankhamun continuation of KV 62 towards the north. The combined evidence of the tomb's basic queenly plan and the north wall scene's Amarna proportions and stylistic detail suggest the possibility that this continuation may lead to the undisturbed burial of Nefertiti herself.

Walker died on February 5, 1931, and her obituary in the New York Evening Post contained this passage: "A great city's water front is rich in romance... There are queenly liners, the grim battle craft, the countless carriers of commerce that pass in endless procession. And amid all this and in the sight of the city of towers and the torch of liberty lived this sturdy little woman, proud of her work and content in it, keeping her lamp alight and her windows clean, so that New York Harbor might be safe for ships that pass in the night.""Tending the Light", New York Evening Post, October 1931. She is interred in Ocean View Cemetery.

In Mercia, Alfred's sister Æthelswith had been the wife of King Burgred of Mercia; she had witnessed charters as queen and had made grants jointly with her husband and in her own name. Æthelflæd benefited from a Mercian tradition of queenly importance, and was able to play a key role in the history of the early tenth century as Lady of the Mercians, which would not have been possible in Wessex. When Æthelred died, Edward took control of the Mercian towns of London and Oxford and their hinterlands, which Alfred had put under Mercian control. Ian Walker suggests that Æthelflæd accepted this loss of territory in return for recognition by her brother of her position in Mercia.

The surviving accounts of her funeral on 12 June 1492 suggest that at least one source "clearly felt that a queen's funeral should have been more splendid" and may have objected that "Henry VII had not been fit to arrange a more queenly funeral for his mother-in-law", although simplicity was the queen dowager's own wish. A letter discovered in 2019, written in 1511 by Andrea Badoer, the Venetian ambassador in London, suggests that she had died of plague, which would explain the haste and lack of public ceremony. Elizabeth was laid to rest in the same chantry as her husband King Edward IV in St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle.

' However, this could be various other women. Historian S. Joy states that "Mary definitely lived past the age of 10, but after that little is known." A more modern theory, from Linda Porter, author of a 2010 biography on Katherine Parr, suggests that a 1573 Latin book of poems and epitaphs written by John Parkhurst, Katherine Parr’s chaplain, contains the following reference to Mary: I whom at the cost Of her own life My queenly mother Bore with the pangs of labour Sleep under this marble An unfit traveller. If Death had given me to live longer That virtue, that modesty, That obedience of my excellent Mother That Heavenly courageous nature Would have lived again in me.

QUEENLY The first letter of the key, Q, would then be taken, and that row would be found in a tabula recta. That column for the first letter of the ciphertext would be looked across, also Q in this case, and the letter to the top would be retrieved, A. Now, that letter would be added to the end of the key: QUEENLYA Then, since the next letter in the key is U and the next letter in the ciphertext is N, the U row is looked across to find the N to retrieve T: QUEENLYAT That continues until the entire key is reconstructed, when the primer can be removed from the start.

Despite that family relationship, Peter's relation to the Borsas was ambiguous and fluctuating. Peter, in accordance with the position of the Catholic Church and Archbishop Lodomer, was interested in a strong central power, opposing such local authority efforts. For instance, Peter sued back the right to collect tithe in Ugocsa County from James Borsa, brother of Roland in 1288. Lodomer summoned the prelates, the barons, and the noblemen to an assembly in Buda and excommunicated Ladislaus in September 1287, following the release of Queen Elizabeth of Sicily, who was imprisoned by her husband, King Ladislaus IV. Lodomer here also entrusted Peter to recover the arbitrarily confiscated queenly estates surrounding Beszterce from the town's magistrate.

Paul Balog succeeded Zlaudus Ják as Bishop of Veszprém at the turn of 1262 and 1263. He was first styled as bishop by a contemporary document in April 1263. Besides that, he was employed in the retinue of Queen Maria Laskarina, wife of Béla IV. He served as chancellor of the queenly court from 1263 until Queen Maria's death in 1270 (in documents, he bore the title for the last time in 1269). He was the first bishop of Veszprém, who held that office; later, the two positions were often filled by the same prelate. In 1262 the hermit Eusebius of Esztergom went to Rome with his companions to meet Pope Urban IV to ask him for approval for founding his own order.

She made her debut in Ostiglia in October 1881, as the lead in The Countess of Amalfi, assuming the stage name of Maria Perrini. "She was so very fine that the public named her the 'Canary of the Pacific,'" wrote her impresario, A. Manzoni."Miss Mamie Perry," Los Angeles Herald, April 10, 1881, image 3"The California Canary," Los Angeles Herald, December 7, 1881, image 3 The Gazeta dei Teatre said of her that: > not yet twenty years of age, [she] has from her good schooling acquired an > admirable agility, a grand extension of voice and exquisite grace, a queenly > appearance and rare rare beauty. Every evening she is greeted with crushing > applause from her first appearance until her last note.

Ecclesia enthroned, 12th century, Prüfening Abbey, Bavaria Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins (top registers), Speculum Humanae Salvationis in Darmstadt, c. 1360 The personification of Ecclesia preceded her coupling with Synagoga by several centuries. A number of biblical passages, including those describing Christ as a "bridegroom" led early in the history of the church to the concept of the church as the Bride of Christ, which was shown in art using a queenly personification. The church was in this context sometimes conflated with the Virgin Mary, leading to the concept of Maria Ecclesia, or Mary as the church, which is an element, now usually unrecognised, in the theology behind much of the art showing the Virgin as a queen.

Then the archbishop summoned the prelates, the barons, and the noblemen to an assembly in Buda in November 1287 and excommunicated Ladislaus. Lodomer here also entrusted Peter Monoszló to recover the arbitrarily confiscated queenly estates surrounding Beszterce (present-day Bistrița, Romania) from the town's magistrate. In response, the infuriated king stated that "beginning with the archbishop of Esztergom and his suffragans, I shall exterminate the whole lot right up to Rome with the aid of Tartar swords", according to Lodomer's highly dubious report. The barons captured Ladislaus in the Szepesség in January 1288. Although his partisans soon liberated him, he, similarly to the "legendary Proteus", as Lodomer described him in his letter, acquiesced in concluding an agreement with the archbishop in March 1288.

The wedding of Philippa and John Though Philippa was seen to present a demeanour of queenly piety,Rusell, Peter E. Prince Henry 'the Navigator': a life. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2000, 23 commenting that "it would be regarded as an indecent thing for a wife to interfere in her husband’s affairs", she wielded significant influence in both the Portuguese and English courts and was "actively involved in world affairs". Surviving letters show that Philippa often wrote to the English court from Portugal and stayed involved in English politics. On one instance, Philippa intervened in court politics on "behalf of followers of the dethroned Richard II when they appealed for her help after her brother, Henry IV, had usurped the English throne".

Caesar scorns to read them, deeming it better to convert his enemies to friends than to waste his time with prosecutions; he casts the bag into the sea. As Cleopatra's boat arrives, the falling bag breaks its prow and it quickly sinks, barely allowing time for Apollodorus to drag the carpet and its queenly contents safe ashore. Caesar unrolls the carpet and discovers Cleopatra, who is distressed because of the rigors of her journey and even more so when she finds Caesar too preoccupied with military matters to accord her much attention. Matters worsen when Britannus, who has been observing the movements of the Egyptian army, reports that the enemy now controls the causeway and is also approaching rapidly across the island.

By political moves Marthanda varma gain victory over the nobles in travancore and bring his sister and son- in-law to Attingal palace which was considered as the ancestral homes of Travancore royals. The Queendom of Attingal favours Devi (female god) worship rather than deva (male god) and the queenly state is rich in Devi temples and Ammachi veedu (where the home was ruled by a grand female). Marthanda varma in 1727 brought seven Vanjipuzha madam sub-Brahmin families including Amunthirathu madam from Chengannur who were from the priest line of Chengannur Mahadeva temple and give property in and around Trivandrum. This was also a political move against the then existed Nair-Brahmin equity of Travancore including the Eight Houses (Pillaimar) and the council of eight and a half (Yogakkar).

The song's lyrics are selected verses from a poem by Sandy Pearlman, the band's producer and mastermind behind their image, called "The Soft Doctrines of Imaginos". In the poem, which was later partially released under the BÖC moniker in the album Imaginos, aliens known as Les Invisibles guide an altered human named Imaginos, also called Desdinova, through history, playing key roles that eventually lead to the outbreak of World War I. In "Astronomy", the character of Imaginos comes to realize his heritage and his role as the altered human. References are made to celestial objects throughout the song: "The light that never warms" being the moon, "The Queenly flux" the constellation Cassiopeia, "My dog, fixed and consequent" being Sirius, the dog star. The "Four Winds Bar" may be a reference to the Tropic of Cancer.

Blood so mingled > Lifts our name starward. Children of that stock > Will see all earth turned Latin at their feet, > Governed by them, as far as on his rounds The Sun looks down on Ocean, East > or West."Aeneid 7.96–101, as translated by Robert Fitzgerald. Lavinia has what is perhaps her most, or only, memorable moment in Book 7 of the Aeneid, lines 69–83: during a sacrifice at the altars of the gods, Lavinia's hair catches fire, an omen promising glorious days to come for Lavinia and war for all Latins: > "While the old king lit fires at the altars With a pure torch, the girl > Lavinia with him, It seemed her long hair caught, her head-dress caught In > crackling flame, her queenly tresses blazed, Her jeweled crown blazed.

Because it was against the custom of the people of Daura for their queens to marry, Daurama made a compromise with Bayajidda and said she would only have sexual intercourse with him later; because of this, she gave him a concubine named Bagwariya. (According to the oral palace version of the legend, Daurama gave him Bagwariya because she wanted to break her "queenly vow to remain a virgin," but had to undergo rituals to do so.) Bagwariya had a son fathered by Bayajidda and she named him Karap da Gari, or Karbagari which means "he snatched the town" in Hausa. This worried Daurama, and when she had a son of her own (also fathered by Bayajidda), she named him Bawo which means "give it back".Palace version of the Bayajidda legend in Lange, Ancient Kingdoms, 293-4.

Marie quickly became pregnant and gave birth to her first child, a son, on 27 September 1601 at the Palace of Fontainebleau. The boy, named Louis and automatically upon birth heir to the throne and Dauphin of France, was born to the great satisfaction of the King and France, who had been waiting for the birth of a Dauphin for more than forty years. She fulfilled her queenly duties and gave birth to five more children (three daughters and two more sons) between 1602 and 1609; however, during 1603–1606 she was effectively separated from her husband, because during this time Henry IV paid more attention to his mistresses. Coronation of Marie de' Medici in St. Denis (detail), by Peter Paul Rubens, 1622–1625 Although the marriage was successful in producing children, it was not a happy one.

As a sign of celebrity, this imagined Egypt has not only been the object of fantasies but has also been caricatured. The best-known of these caricatures today are those appearing in such media of popular culture as the Astérix comic books of René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo. Playing on the glamorous image created by cinema, the authors satirize the fascination that Cleopatra exercises on those around her, focusing especially on her nose and exaggerating her queenly status by depicting her as capricious and temperamental, far-removed from the ideal of the seductive woman so often imagined. In a more general manner, this image of Egyptian women, forceful, behind a mysterious and magical veil, and exercising a seductive power, continues to this day, for example in the American series Stargate SG-1, or again in Luc Besson's film The Fifth Element (1997).

This assumption is confirmed by the fact that Stephen served as envoy of Charles to foreign lands at least nine times by 1326, which assumed he was fluent in French and Italian. Based on land donations and inheritance contracts in the decades of the 14th century between Stephen and his familials, historian Krisztina Tóth suggested he originated from a lesser noble family which gained their first lands and villages in Požega County during the reign of Ladislaus IV. Following the end of the Mongol invasion of Hungary, Béla IV donated the entire territory to his wife Maria Laskarina thus Požega County became a permanent queenly estate. In 1281, Queen Dowager Elizabeth donated the villages Alsókamarica and Berzince to her courtly youths, brothers Ambrose and Leonard of Požega, respectively. When Ladislaus IV was killed in 1290, his sister Mary, Queen of Naples announced her claim to Hungary.

Memling presents the Virgin as the Bride of Christ about to assume her role as Queen of Heaven, with attendant angels indicating her royal status. These kind of angels are usually shown hovering above the Virgin, holding her crown, and some German painters showed them hovering close in Annunciation scenes, but angels rarely approach or touch the Virgin.Sterling (1998), 82 Only a single previous version of such attendant angels has been found: in the Boucicaut Master's early 15th-century illuminated manuscript version of the "Visitation", the pregnant Virgin's long mantle is held by attendant angels, about which Blum notes that "her queenly appearance surely commemorates the moment when Mary is first addressed as Theotokos, the Mother of the Lord." Memling often depicted pairs of angels dressed in vestments attending the Virgin, but these two, dressed in simple amices and albs, were never repeated in his art.

Much later in the tale we learn that the name of this half-brother is Cabanus and there is a grand recognition scene between Ipomadon and his brother at the very end of the story. Cabanus is living at King Meleager's court in Sicily, who, you will remember, is the Proud's uncle, and, following his abrupt departure from this proud teenager's queenly court and a season of jousting in far-flung corners of Christendom, Ipomadon arrives in Sicily and to King Maleager's court, becoming known at once as the queen's favourite, perhaps even her lover. But he again becomes a figure of fun among the other noblemen for his (feigned) dislike of jousting in favour of hunting. Meanwhile, the Proud has fallen into despondency and her noblemen, concerned that she must find a suitable husband, at last persuade her to agree to hold a tournament and to marry the knight who proves himself to be the strongest at the fighting.

Consequently, the gain of power by the lesser nobility remained only nominal; establishment of the four-member small council with veto power and Thomas' appointment to this body served only the purpose of artificially changing the balance of power in the royal council in favor of the clergy led by John Hont-Pázmány. With his veto power, Thomas was able to thwart the decisions of the other barons and even the king. By April 1299, in addition to his role in the royal council, Thomas also became a "baron" of Andrew's spouse, Queen Agnes of Austria, in accordance with the 24th article of the 1298 diet, which authorized Andrew III to appoint barons for the administration of the queenly court. It is presumable that Thomas was present at the 1298 national diet (despite the "exclusion" of the barons), and both positions were tailored for exclusively his person by his brother John and his suffragans.

Elizabeth, and Gregory's wife most possibly were the daughters of Seyhan, a Cuman chieftain. The marriage of Gregory and the Cuman lady presumably occurred in the mid-1260s, as, according to a 1274 royal charter issued by Elizabeth's son, Ladislaus IV of Hungary, Elizabeth had previously donated the queenly estate of Pány (today Paňovce, Slovakia) to her sister, which area then belonged to her husband, Stephen's realm, who, adopting the title of Junior King, forced his father, King Béla IV of Hungary to cede all the lands of the Kingdom of Hungary to the east of the Danube to him. Later, in 1274, Ladislaus IV confiscated his aunt's estate in exchange for Kárán, Somogy County, which laid near to the Monoszlós' lands. Historian János Karácsonyi claimed, Elizabeth and her unidentified sister were the siblings of Bulgarian Despot Jacob Svetoslav, who rebelled against his father-in-law, Stephen's rule, and after the victorius Hungarian campaign in 1266, Egyed Monoszló, who captured Tirnovo, took the Despot's sister to marry with his younger brother, Gregory as pledge of the peace.

The popular myth that Catherine Parr acted more as her husband's nurse than his wife was born in the 19th century from the work of Victorian moralist and proto-feminist, Agnes Strickland. David Starkey challenged this assumption in his book Six Wives, in which he points out that such a situation would have been vaguely obscene to the Tudors—given that Henry had a huge staff of physicians waiting on him hand and foot, and Catherine was expected to live up to the heavy expectations of Queenly dignity. Parr is usually portrayed in cinema and television by actresses who are much older than the queen, who was in her early 30s when she was Henry's wife and was about 36 years old at the time of her death. When she married Henry she was 31, younger than the 32 year-old Anne Boleyn was when she married Henry This change is usually an artistic licence taken to highlight Parr's maturity in comparison to Henry's previous queens, or at least a symptom of the longer lifespans enjoyed by modern audiences (who might be confused as to why a 30-year-old is considered much older and more experienced).
