Quote context

[...]

- The world outside boiled and seethed and rumbled with rumors of a coming war, for these were the 1930s.

- But the rumors meant little to Rhayader or Frith.

- They caught wildfowl together for their ever-increasing colony, and built new pens and enclosures to house them till the summer took them north once more.

- But when that happened, and the princess herself flew off once more, it was as though some kind of bar was between them.

- Frith herself stayed away, and Rhayader was alone again.

- When she came, Rhayader, with a shock, realised that she was a child no longer.

- In just a few short months, she had grown up into a shy young woman.

Top rated lines from this movie

Where did she come from, did you say? -From Canada. That's a land far, far across the seas. Beautiful daughter of England.
We'll call her La Princesse Perdue, the lost princess.
Yes. Seems a long time ago, doesn't it? -A long time ago. All the way between childhood and being grown up.
The marsh is desolate, utterly lonely, and made lonelier by the calls and cries of the wild fowl that make their homes in the saltings.
Don't you want her to feel free? Free to go where she wants to be? Free to do what she wants to do? We don't want to make the princess a prisoner, do we? -No. -No.
