"Give me to redeem my honour," said Halbert Glendinning "give me to retort on my proud rival the insults he has thrown on me, and let the rest fare as it will. If I cannot revenge my wrong, I shall sleep quiet, and know nought of my disgrace." The phantom failed not to reply, "When Piercie Shafton boasteth high, Let this token meet his eye.
"There is also," said Poundtext, "Harrison the steward, and John Gudyill, even the lady's chief butler, who boasteth himself a man of war from his youth upward, and who spread the banner against the good cause with that man of Belial, James Grahame of Montrose." "Pshaw!" returned Burley, scornfully, "a butler!"
Without sense, this one hath been deprived of his natural coat of mail. Always kind, he hath also been deprived of his celestial ear-rings. Hearing this, Drona, that foremost of all wielders of weapons, said, "It is even so as thou hast said. That is not untrue! He boasteth on the eve of every battle, but yet he is seen to retreat from every engagement.
"The tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things.... The tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison." ST JAMES iii 5-8. Roy spent ten days in Delhi lodging with one Krishna Lal, a jewel merchant of high standing, well known to Sir Lakshman and never a word or a sight of Dyán Singh.
The roads are even. Thy steeds are well-fed. Engage in battle, therefore, on the morrow, with Kesava as thy ally! Without having yet approached Bhishma in battle, why dost thou indulge in boasts?

'It is naught, it is naught, says the buyer, but when he hath gone his way he boasteth, is as applicable to our times, as to those of Solomon. The ignorant, the modest, and the necessitous persons who should be the last to suffer from fraud, are, in this way, often made victims.
If ever in kindly mood thou stoodest by my father in the heat of battle, even so now be thou likewise kind to me, Athene. Grant me to slay this man, and bring within my spear-cast him that took advantage to shoot me, and boasteth over me, deeming that not for long shall I see the bright light of the sun."
Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
Vaisampayana continued, "Having listened to these words of Karna, Bhishma the son of Santanu, addressing king Dhritarashtra, again said, 'Although this one often boasteth saying, "I shall slay the Pandavas," yet he is not equal to even a sixteenth part of the high-souled Pandavas.
But it is the side of which we hear least. The quarrel is like all quarrels, it takes two to make it; but as, of those two, one is only one, and the other is from ten to a hundred, it is easy to see which side will do most talking in setting forth its grievances. "It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer; and when he is gone his way then he boasteth."
