What is Get Thee To A Nunnery?


1.

A statement to a woman that either the world is too harsh for her innocent beauty, or that she innocently brings pain to all the men around her because of her beauty, or ideally, both. The idea is that it would be better if her beauty were left unappreciated for all of her life.
