Thus also with bronze: the polished, worked bronze, of fine chocolate burnish and reddish reflections, mars all beauty of line; how different the unchased, merely rough cast, greenish, with infinite delicate greys and browns, making, for instance, the head of an old woman like an exquisite withered, shrivelled, veined autumnal leaf.

He would be more malleable set near such a fire. Your cheeks are burning bright! As for your big eyes, I believe you burnish them. Do you know how handsome you are, I wonder?" "No one has ever told me that but you, ma'am," said Isoult, demure. "Pooh, your glass will have told you. They don't lie." "I never had a glass till I came here. Not even at the convent."
The poem is called 'Tardy George. Listen: "What are you waiting for, George, I pray? To scour your cross belts with fresh pipe clay? To burnish your buttons, to brighten your guns?

"He wotteth well that Hillyer hath none who can burnish plate armour like Tibble here." "Moreover the last iron we had from that knave Mepham is nought. It works short under the hammer." "That shall be seen to, Kit. The rest of the budget to-morrow. I must on to my mother."
But our silversmith, always busy at his work, burnishing gold and melting silver, had no time to warm his love or to burnish and make shine his fantasies, nor to show off, gad about, waste his time in mischief, or to run after she-males.
The man on the box-seat was a big, deep-chested man, long and powerful of forearm. He held the exuberant, snorting blacks easily with one hand. The woman beside him was a good mate for him, firmly knit, strong in her movements. Under her black hat the burnish of her hair and skin made her look gold-dusted. They were high up Razor Ridge.
