The Princess

Wanting nothing to do with men, a beautiful young woman founds a women's university, where no man can enter. But as the master Tennyson writes, "Life is brief but love is long"; love will find a way; and the prince to whom the young woman was betrothed in infancy disguises himself into a woman and enters the grounds...This classic narrative poem continues to captivate generation after generation of listeners and it is no wonder why: "Better not be at all than not be noble."
