Restifnessnoun
Obstinate reluctance.
Etymology: from restiff.
Overt virtues bring forth praise; but secret virtues bring forth fortune: certain deliveries of a man’s self, which the Spanish name desemboltura, partly expresseth, where there be not stands nor restiveness in a man’s nature; but the wheels of his mind keep way with the wheels of his fortune. Francis Bacon.
That it gave occasion to some men’s further restiveness, is imputable to their own depraved tempers. Charles I .
