This combined program, by increasing the amount of our national income, will in time result in still higher Federal revenues. It is a fiscally responsible program the surest and the soundest way of achieving in time a balanced budget in a balanced full employment economy.
If plans were prepared for a new links over a particular piece of territory by a 12-handicap man and a scratch player, it is highly probable that in the most material matters they would differ greatly, and it is fairly certain that a committee of the oldest and most experienced golfers would unanimously pick out the scratch player's plans from all the others as being the best and soundest, and that without knowing who had prepared them.
Walsingham who felt it madness to dream of peace, and who believed it the soundest policy to deal with Parma and his veterans upon the soil of Flanders, with the forces of the republic for allies, rather than to await his arrival in London was driven almost to frenzy by what he deemed the Queen's perverseness.
I stooped down in some pain, to see what had bolted me to the grating; but I had no sooner extricated my foot, than, over-worked and over-fatigued as I was, I fell over in the soundest sleep that ever I have enjoyed before or since, the back of my neck resting on a coil of rope, so that my head hung down within it.

My chain of thought, I fancy, was this the tug is to carry my party; I cannot shadow a tug in a rowboat, yet I intend to shadow my party; I must therefore go with them in the tug, and the first and soundest step is to mimic her crew. But the next step was a hard matter, for the crew having finished their job sat side by side on the bulwarks and lit their pipes.
Setting aside his merit as a poet, which, however, in my opinion, is greater than any of his contemporaries can boast, in this or in any other nation, I found him possessed of the most exact taste, the soundest judgment, and the most extensive learning. He is happy in a singular facility of expression.
We got to bed late that night as all parents ought on the night before Christmas; but Old Chris himself, soundest of sleepers, never slept sounder! And what a Christmas Day we had. What a tree it was! Who got it? How?
My paper shall render your traders justice for what they do, and justice for what they don't do. 'My traders, as you call them, are the soundest foundation for a civilized state that the world has yet seen. 'What is your paper to be called? said Cecilia. 'The DAWN, Beauchamp answered. She blushed fiery red, and turned the leaves of a portfolio of drawings. 'The DAWN! ejaculated Tuckham.
