husbandless

English

Adjective

husbandless (not comparable)

  1. Without a husband.
    • 1922, Geoffrey Montagu Cookson (transl.), Prometheus Bound, page 203 in Four Plays of Aeschylus.
      For I am full of fear when I behold
      Io, the maid no human love may fold,
      And her virginity disconsolate,
      Homeless and husbandless by Hera's hate.
