“Sad it is, the fate of kings.”
Robert T. Reilly, Red Hugh: Prince of Donegal
tags: royal, rule, sad

“His mother laughed. "Go along with you now. Save your sweet-tongued blarney for the likes of Kathleen.”
Robert T. Reilly, Red Hugh: Prince of Donegal

"Well now, Kathleen MacSweeney, so that's your plan is it? I cannot see how any man could hold out long against such a scheme.”
Robert T. Reilly, Red Hugh: Prince of Donegal
