[1913 Webster]
Syn: Strong; lusty; sinewy; sturdy; muscular; hale; hearty;
vigorous; forceful; sound.
Usage: Robust, Strong. Robust means, literally, made of
oak, and hence implies great compactness and toughness
of muscle, connected with a thick-set frame and great
powers of endurance. Strong denotes the power of
exerting great physical force. The robust man can bear
heat or cold, excess or privation, and toil on through
every kind of hardship; the strong man can lift a
great weight, can give a heavy blow, and a hard gripe.
"Robust, tough sinews bred to toil." --Cowper.
[1913 Webster]
Then 'gan the villain wax so fierce and strong,
That nothing may sustain his furious force.
