Does too! Look in books that use old English, your is also thou. Shakespeare is not the only one that uses old English, he does not use all the old English either!
Eddings does, and unless he is wrong, I am right. =P

Prithee means "pray thee" as in "I pray thee". Basically it mean please in a pleading manner.
