a solemn pledge of love

showy(gaudy)

indulge in a gay life and debauchery

fish for a needle in the ocean(search for a needle in a haystack; very difficult to find)

relatives of the emperor

miss very much(pine for)

lilies and roses(very beautiful)

favour one and slight the other

make no doubt of(at the drop of a hat)

old goat(satyriasis)

be courteous and accessible

crave after greatness and success

confuse right and wrong

go without saying(make no doubt; to a certainty)

write with a free pen

having a bright new look

lofty sentiments and aspirations

utter cries of anguish

Not know whether one is (standing) on one's head or one's heels(not to know what to do next; muddleheaded; absentminded)
