You white livered Abolitionist, come out, damn you! we are going to give you a coat of tar and feathers, and your black wench nine-and-thirty.

The little namby-pamby, white livered, zephyr clouds that is so divine an' useless, might float forever an' not even make a shadow to hide men from the sun. "So credit the fallen man or woman, big with life an' passion, with the good they've done when you debit 'em with the evil.
And yet the Southern whites seemed to look upon this brutality as a matter of course, and even before the preparations were made for the flogging, knew what would be the punishment inflicted upon the poor black, for his unsuccessful attempt to liberate his white skinned, and white livered comrades; and while they seemed to feel a sort of sympathy for their black skinned, but brave hearted comrade, they offered no remonstrance to his cruel tormentors, nor made a plea for mercy in his behalf.
You'd grow w'iter still, with a rope round your neck, if you wos left to my tender mercies, you w'ite livered villain! for I knows you; I've watched you; I've found you hout; an' I've only got to 'old up my little finger to cut your pretty little career prematoorly short.

"I am with you, whatever it is," the other said; "and I think there are twenty or thirty we could rely on. I don't say there are more than that, because there are a lot of white livered cusses among them who would inform against us at once, so as to get their own freedom as a reward for doing so. Well, we will both think it over, mate, and the sooner the better."
I livered more babies den most doctors sometimes de white folks had doctors but I don't take no stock in dese doctors.

"You're a bunch of white livered cowards all of you." I saw Dan double up his fists and start towards the man. The latter checked him with a command. "Go back down there or you're fired," he said to him. Dan turned red. Then I saw his jaws come together. "Begod!" he answered. "You shan't fire me, anyhow." Without another word he started down the ladder again.

"'Smarty, I says, 'if yer knew so blame well it was Ranch, why did yer give him the flyin' tackle like yer done an' git him all woiked up like this?
Nicholas shook his head. "No, leave out eating," he said. "An' the splittin' open of that durn livered Spike Turner?" "Yes, that too." Jubal whittled slowly, his forehead wrinkling more deeply. "Then I don't know whether it's to give ma a rest or to own Billy Flinders's coon dog, Boss," he said. Nicholas laughed for an instant, but the laugh softened into a smile.
I ain't no use for Buck. He's kind o' white livered, but he's a straight citizen. Then the Padre," he laughed again, "he's too good. Say, he's next best to a passon. So it can't be him." He waited for concurrence, and it came at once. "I'll swar' it ain't the Padre," cried Curly warmly. "It sure ain't," agreed Slaney, shaking his serious head. "The Padre?" cried Abe, with a scornful laugh.
