obedient
When the ruler is obedient to God,
God is his protector and friend. [ Saadi ]
An obedient wife commands her husband. [ Proverb ]
They know the time to go!
The fairy clocks strike their inaudible hour
In field and woodland, and each punctual flower
Bows at the signal an obedient head
And hastes to bed. [ Susan Coolidge ]
Oh! nature's noblest gift - my grey goosed quill:
Slave of my thoughts, obedient to my will,
Torn from thy parent bird to form a pen,
That mighty instrument of little men! [ Byron ]
And when obedient nature knows his will, a fly, a grapestone, or a hair can kill. [ Prior ]
