He stood before her, flushed and excited; a broad-shouldered avenger of the sex, such as any distressed maiden might have been glad to light upon. But again Victoria was aware that the case was not as simple as it sounded. However, she was no less angry than he.
Quickly the night cometh, When red the streets with gore o’ the mightiest Shall fiercely flow, like Tiber in flood. Rise then, avenger, the time it hath come!

Jugurtha was the idol of the Africans, who readily overlooked the double fratricide in the liberator and avenger of their nation.
More than once she had exclaimed reproachfully: "To hear you two, one would think there was no nice, respectable, quiet people left in the world!" But now all that was changed.

The first Lieutenant Colonel was Cleland, that implacable avenger of blood who had driven Dundee from the Convention.
The things that had festered in the unclean soreness of his brain had tinctured every thought with their poison of monomania, leaving him without a suspicion of his own miserable deceit. He believed that he held the imperative commission of the Deity to act as a vicegerent and an avenger. God had designated him as a prosecutor, and to-night he was summing up the case against the transgressors.
