Good King Wenceslas Quote

Princess Johanna: Well, if you're the prince's groom, you must know him well. What sort of a man is he? You can tell me; it'll go no further, I swear. Is he well favored?
Prince Wenceslas: Oh, not at all. This horse is prettier.
Princess Johanna: Why do you stare so? You are impertinent.
Prince Wenceslas: Between ourselves, my lady, the prince is no match for one as fine as you. You have eyes that could melt the coldest heart.
Princess Johanna: And now you mock me?
Prince Wenceslas: No. No, not I.
Princess Johanna: 'Eyes that could melt the coldest heart'? That's from some verse, I'm sure of it. I believe you were told to say these things to me by your master.
Prince Wenceslas: Not the prince, my lady. He's very course in his ways.
Princess Johanna: They told me he could read Latin.
Prince Wenceslas: He can't read. He's cross-eyed.
