"We are Wards In Chancery, and Father is a Major General."
Thank you for the reminder. having done Pirates a number of times, I'm surprised I forgot that, especially as Gilbert daringly rhymes "chancery" with "caravanserai." ;-)
I still stand by the idea that Gilbert could be quite suggestive when he wanted to be. Perhaps a better example would be the way the (highly susceptible) Lord Chancellor in Iolanthe overtly lusts after his very own wards in chancery. Oops... |
