From the text:
"No further words from my father about Shaggy Beard, so mayhap the trouble has passed and these plans, too, come to nothing."
"Still, I would rather be Meg, about to marry the choice of my heart, rather than the lady Catherine, promised to a pig. I am desolate."
"I realize that Shaggy Beard has won my body, but no matter whose wife I am, I will still be me."
