Hitherto, I chiefly portrayed to you /myself/. I bared open to you my heart and temper, my passions, and the thoughts which belong to our passions. I shall now rather bring before you the natures and the minds of others. The lover and the dreamer are no more!
Much of the civility shown to us here was, no doubt, owing to the flattering letters of recommendation I carried from the Chevalier Du Prat, of Cape Town; but I am inclined to believe that my friend Cypriano was influenced, too, by feelings of genuine kindness, for he quite bared his garden in feeding us during the few days which I remained, anxiously expecting the clouds to disperse, so far as to allow of my taking observations for the determination of the position of the Quango.
"Oh, don't mention it!" exclaimed the Wolf; "no doubt we shall find something for dinner presently don't you think so, children?" he asked, turning to the others. "I was going to say," recommenced the Outcast, "that I could not ask you to eat just here, but I was actually on my way to invite you to a big feeding." The Timber Wolf bared his fangs in a grin of derisive unbelief.
The north-east wind pierced its bitterness through my bared breast; I pulled the shawl tighter around me, clutching as I did so, a circlet of diamonds, that would have purchased all the comforts in the land for me, and yet I was alone and freezing. He was comfortable and warm, whose cruelty had driven me into the street, and yet I was his own flesh and blood.
He poured out enough to kill two men, when I told him that we didn't keep a hotel for suicides, and he had better cut the quantity down. He then bared his legs and arms, and they were literally pitted with scars, due to the use of hypodermic syringes. He said he had taken it for years, and it required a big dose to have any effect.

The worth of a bull is little, but Bagheera's honour is something that he will perhaps fight for, said Bagheera, in his gentlest voice. 'A bull paid ten years ago! the Pack snarled. 'What do we care for bones ten years old? 'Or for a pledge? said Bagheera, his white teeth bared under his lip. 'Well are ye called the Free People!
Madame d'Estrées was profiting by it to the full. She was in excellent spirits and talk; bright-rose carnations shone in the bosom of her dress; one white arm, bared to the elbow, lay stretched carelessly on the fine cut-velvet which covered the gilt sofa part of a suite of Venetian Louis Quinze, clumsily gorgeous on which she sat; the other hand pulled the ears of a toy spaniel.
Sometimes it seemed as if every one was weeping; and when the open hearse, with its plain oak coffin, crowned by The Army bonnet and well-worn Bible, passed, all heads were bared, all voices hushed, and tears filled all eyes.
From Níyávarán He was conducted “on foot and in chains, with bared head and bare feet,” exposed to the fierce rays of the midsummer sun, to the Síyáh-Chál of Ṭihrán. On the way He several times was stripped of His outer garments, was overwhelmed with ridicule, and pelted with stones.
Is it because of your your code of faith? Is it because you think you may save a soul?" He was breathing deeply. As he excoriated himself and bared his weakness the hot blood crept slowly into his face. "Why do you want me to go?" he demanded. "Why don't you ask some man with red blood in his veins and a heart that hasn't been burned out? Why have you asked me?"
