BOLDNESS, n. Courage bravery intrepidity spirit fearlessness. I cannot, with Johnson, interpret this word by fortitude or magnanimity. Boldness does not, I think, imply the firmness of mind, which constitutes fortitude,nor the elevation and generosity of magnanimity.

1. Prominence the quality of exceeding the ordinary rules of scrupulous nicety and caution applied to style, expression, and metaphors in language and to figures in painting, sculpture and architecture.
2. Freedom from timidity liberty.

Great is my boldness of speech towards you. 2 Corinthians 7

3. Confidence confident trust.

We have boldness and access with confidence. Ephesians 3

4. Freedom from bashfulness assurance confident mien.
5. Prominence steepness as the boldness of the shore.
6. Excess of freedom, bordering on impudence.
