The Bloody chamber things to help my understanding

Marquis is a nobleman ranking above a count and below a duke. (lord)

"Funereal Lily" is associated with funerals as the whiteness of the flower was said to represent the soul's return to perfection and purity after death. It is meant to convey a meaning of dignified seriousness. It can also be used at weddings to show the beauty and purity of the bride. 

The Mirrors make it look like the Marquis has bought a parlor worth of lily's and its like he is undressing multiple women. They are to make it look the Marquis has a lot but its all face value there is nothing much actually there.
