Words: maritorious [OED]

RootsWeb: ABOUT-WORDS-L maritorious, mariturient and moggie: "I found out a rare word yesterday. MARITORIOUS, meaning a woman who is excessively fond of her husband. This is just the opposite of uxorious. But, the word is so rare that it is not listed in many dictionaries. I found an entry in the OED, which describes it as a nonce word, used humorously for the first time in 1607, by Chapman.

'DAMES MARITORIOUS NE'RE WERE MERITORIOUS.'

The OED also lists MARITALITY as having the same meaning."
