I could hear the maids knocking on doors and rattling keys in locks down the corridor, so I decided to go back to my room and wash there. |
The kitchen maid had let it slip out that one of the maids had slipped something into the Queen's supper. |
Between sobs he had stirred, whisked, and vehemently scolded the kitchen maids into attending their own bowls as reverently as he did his own. |
I feel obligated to clean up after myself since I'll be running into the maids all month. |
This produces a mind-set that puts maids at the lowest level of the social structure. |
I was bored, and those silly ninnies you call scullery maids are no fun at all. |
