Even avoir-dupois increased their resiliency the moment it was removed. But Jimbo checked her better than most. She did look a trifle ashamed for a second. 'Can't you wait? he whispered. 'Daddy'll spoil it if you begin it here. How you do fidget! They passed all together out into the yard, the men in front, the two children just behind, walking warily.
When daylight came on the morning of the sixth day out we saw and felt that the 'James Caird' had lost her resiliency. She was not rising to the oncoming seas. The weight of the ice that had formed in her and upon her during the night was having its effect, and she was becoming more like a log than a boat. The situation called for immediate action.
They would certainly lose the trail at the hills, and it would take them five, perhaps ten, minutes to find it once more. He leaned against a tree, drawing great breaths and relaxing his muscles. He permitted everything to give way for a minute or two, knowing that in such manner he would procure the most rest and resiliency.
With marvellous resiliency of spirits he managed not only to pull through, but to complete Rienzi, then to write one great opera and begin planning two very great ones. We have accounts mostly written long after the event of merry meetings and suppers; but against them we must set the dozens of despairing letters and scribbled notes in which he complains of his luck and his lot.

It was rather amusing to hear Jake growling as he twisted in his blouse.
They had never before seen him other than jaunty and debonair, whether his family were at Newport or in the mountains. "It's all very well for you boys," he said; "you have youth and resiliency on your side. No matter what happens to you now, in money or in love, you can come again.
She had the power of casting troubles behind, recuperative power, resiliency. Glyde, the olive- faced, watched them down the walk, and owned to a heart of lead.

"It's good of you to come with me, Sancie, my dear.
They both called as they ran, "Mother, oh, Mother!" and as they ran, they leaped and bounded into the bright autumn air like a couple of puppies.
