Examples from texts

Our provisions held out well, our ship was staunch, and our crew all in good health; but we lay in the utmost distress for water.
Провианта у нас было вдоволь, корабль в хорошем состоянии, экипаж совершенно здоров, и только ограниченность запасов пресной воды внушала нам сильное беспокойство.

He remained staunch to the great oath he had sworn to the beautiful young lady, refusing several eligible landladies on her account, and dying a bachelor at last.

“'We are staunch Union sympathizers,'” mimicked the old lady, twanging the words through her long thin nose. “Cathleen said the two of them swore up hill and down dale that the whole passel of Calverts were Yankees.
— «Мы стойкие сторонники Федерации», — иронически прогнусавила бабушка, подражая выговору северян, — Кэтлин говорит, они оба клялись и божились, что весь калвертовский выводок — чистокровные янки.

As a staunch Confucianist, Judge Dee disapproved of Buddhism, and the scandalous behaviour of the monks in the Temple of Transcendental Wisdom in his own district had further fortified him in this antagonistic attitude.
Будучи убежденным конфуцианцем, Ди не одобрял буддизма, а скандальное поведение монахов храма Бесконечного Милосердия в его уезде еще больше укрепило его в этом отрицательном отношении.
