And she was a well-nurtured, handsome, educated woman, born to such comforts as you and I enjoy every day, oh, my reader! perhaps without much giving of thanks for them. Poor lady! the struggle was too much for her, and she died under it. Mr. Townsend was, as I have said, the very opposite to Mr.
The well-born and well-nurtured gentlewoman loves once and once only." "I pray you, madam, pardon me, I I am not well," said the gray friar, rising abruptly from his settle, and tottering down the steps of the dais. Wamba sprung after him, his bells jingling as he rose, and casting his arms around the apparently fainting man, he led him away into the court.
At some distance behind I saw a number of huge barns, a cattle yard and a silo all the evidences of prosperity with well-nurtured fields, now yellowing with the summer crops, spreading pleasantly away on every hand.
And who of us can say, until a careful scientific investigation is made, how much the rapid development of tuberculosis and other grave diseases, even among the well-nurtured, may be due to the depletion of the physical capital of the unborn by the too prolific childbearing of preceding generations of mothers?

He is a well-nurtured youth, and will not vex her."

Being at ordinary times an exceptionally sensible, well-balanced woman, she had never, in old days, allowed her mind to dwell on certain things she had learnt as to the aberrations of which human nature is capable even well-born, well-nurtured, gentle human nature as exemplified in some of the households where she had served.
