noble's
Belonging to aristocracy
Noble's is the possessive form of noble, indicating ownership or association with a person of aristocratic rank or high birth.
It appears most commonly in historical or literary contexts describing what belongs to such a person: the noble's estate, the noble's coat of arms.
The possessive can also attach to the adjective-turned-noun sense, referring to someone of admirable character: a noble's sacrifice for the common good.
