"Throw away such a cauliflower as this!" exclaimed Uncle Dozie, with great indignation. "What are you going to do with them, then?" "Carry them to the house there." "What house?" "Mrs. Wyllys's, to be sure," replied Uncle Dozie, boldly. "What is the use of carrying vegetables to Mrs. Wyllys? She has a garden of her own" said his brother, very innocently.
Too weak and timid to follow boldly the guidance of his reason, he preferred trusting to the more convenient path of conscience; a thing was just so soon as it became his duty; he belonged to those honest men who are indispensable to bad ones; fraud reckoned on his honesty. Half a century later he would have received his immortality from the freedom which he now helped to subvert.
The century-plant, which here does not require pampering under glass, but boldly takes its place out doors with the other trees of the garden, employs much less than a hundred years to bring itself to bloom.
He reproached them with not having more boldly separated the New Republic, in its management and minor details, from the memories of the old one. Far from agreeing with his uncle that a revival of the horrors of 'ninety-three would have assured the triumph of the New Republic, he believed it had sunk under the bloody shadow of its predecessor.
Arriving at the city, he attacked boldly, slew the tyrant Creon with his own hand, tore down the houses, wall, roof, and rafter, and then gave the bodies to the weeping ladies that they might be honourably interred. While searching amongst the slain Thebans, two young knights were found grievously wounded, and by the richness of their armour they were known to be of the blood royal.
Or should he write to her mother, telling her that Burton Crescent would not suit him any longer, promising her to send the balance on receipt of his next payment, and asking her to send his clothes in a bundle to the Income-tax Office? Or should he go home to his own mother, and boldly tell it all to her?
He boldly cut loose his connection with Washington, and sailed out into the unknown and untried, relying upon the ability of his soldiers to open a new base for supplies whenever needed. In this first day's movement he did not uncover Washington. Burnside was still lying on the north bank of the Rappahannock.
Malcomson came forward boldly to support Evadne; and so also did Mrs. Sillinger. Mr. St. John was another of Evadne's particular friends.
They spoke only in allegories, emblems, enigmas, and ambiguous oracles means well calculated to excite curiosity, and above all to inspire the astonished vulgar with a holy respect for men, who when they were thought to be instructed by the gods, and capable of reading in the heavens the fate of the earth, boldly proclaimed themselves the oracles of the Deity.
Having nothing to fear, Fortunatus walked boldly up to the inn, and called for the best supper they could get ready in a minute; "For," said he, "I must wait till to-morrow before I am very nice. I am so hungry now, that almost anything will do." Fortunatus very soon ate quite enough, and then called for every sort of wine in the house, and drank his fill.
