Wildish peas, wilder asparagus the field asparagus which seems to have disappeared from England, but of which Herrick boasts in his manifestations of frugality and strawberries much less than half-way from the small and darkling ones of the woods to the pale and corpulent of the gardens, and with nothing of the wild fragrance lost these are all Italian things of savage savour and simplicity.
He put his guardians deliberately aside, had his lawyers and bailiffs and stewards thoroughly under control: managed a particularly difficult step-mother; escaped the snares of her lovely cousin; and drove his team of sycophants exactly the road he chose to go and no other.

You can't expect to have a man, if he doesn't take a man's food. You'll have a milksop. And, depend upon it, when he does break out he'll go to the devil, and nobody pities him.
He was a rough, wildish lad not worse than his companions, but that was not saying much for him, and it seemed but too likely that he would give his parents trouble. The third boy, Lawrence, was a helpless cripple. He had been hurt in the mine three years before, and it seemed likely he would never walk again. He went by the name of Limping Lawry among the people in the village of Wallford.
