Henry Blaine shook his head sadly, affecting not to notice his operative's rising emotion. "I mean that I won't, sir. I'm sorry to appear insubordinate, but I've got to refuse I simply must. I've never shirked a duty before, as I think you will admit, Mr. Blaine.
In Scotland, among insubordinate nobles and the ministers of the Kirk, who on one occasion went so far as to pull his sleeve when they addressed to him their rebukes, he had hardly tasted the sweets of regal power. The deference with which the English clergy treated him deepened his attachment to their Church. He had high notions of the divine right of kings.
It will have been observed that, after the descent of Susanoo, the Kami on the "plain of high heaven" took no further part in "making" or "ruling" the "ever fruitful land of reed-covered moors, and luxuriant rice-fields," as Japan was called. Everything was left in the hands of Susanoo, the insubordinate Kami, who had been expelled from heaven for his destructive violence.
"I'll take him and give him to you to tie up and keep until we're safe in port. You must do this or you will be insubordinate." "Sure," said Dog Daniels, "if you'll take the fellow, we'll guarantee to keep him fast enough. Hey, Jenks, ain't that so?" I thought I saw a suspicion of a smile play over the old sailor's wrinkled face, and the seams of his leather-like jaws seemed to grow deeper.
"It will be difficult," said Miss Bailey, gently insubordinate, "very difficult. I have already a register of fifty-eight and seats for only fifty. It is late in the term, too; the children read and write quite easily. And you say this new boy has never been at school?" "Never," admitted the Principal. "His people are rather distrustful of us. Some religious prejudice, I believe.
He found time to run down to Hampton Roads with Gideon Welles, his loyal Secretary of the Navy, to inspect the ships assembled there. He saw a narrow door bound with iron. "What is that?" he asked sharply. "Oh, that is the sweat box," the Secretary replied, "used for insubordinate seamen " "Oh," the rugged giant exclaimed, "how do you work it?"
For minor offences the Europeans are fined by stopping their pay for a certain number of days and sometimes a man is revocated, which means he is sent home without being paid for the six months or year previously. In this way men who drink hard when they have the opportunity, who are habitually insubordinate, or who are undesirable, are weeded out rapidly.
Health, therefore, should mean unity. ... The idea should be a positive one a condition of the body in which it is an entirety, a unity, a central force maintaining that condition; and disease being the break-up or break-down of that entirety into multiplicity.... Thus in a body, the establishment of an insubordinate centre a boil, a tumor, the introduction and spread of a germ with innumerable progeny throughout the system, the enlargement out of all reason of an existing organ means disease.
Unfortunately his power was insufficient to cope successfully with the insubordinate Spaniards. The ringleader of the mutineers was Francisco Roldan, a man whom Columbus had raised from the dust. He had been a servant; and the admiral, noting his ability, had intrusted him with some judicial functions. When he sailed for Spain he appointed Roldan chief justice of the colony.
The insubordinate Indians were under command of "Joe," Sam's brother, who at last sent me word that he wanted to see me, and we met between our, respective lines. I talked kindly to him, but was firm in my demand that the men who killed the woman must be given up and my six-shooter returned. His reply was he did not think it could be done, but he would consult his people.
