Mary Cleia was singing Baa Baa Black Sheep and got stuck on the word "dame." I wanted to know what the formal definition for dame was.

Dame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "A Dame may be:
Dame (title), a female title of rank, equivalent to 'Sir' used as the title of a knight
A female Lord or Seigneur, or the wife of one"
