Definition
to criticize someone by telling them what they did wrong — often in a formal manner
- At sunrise he summoned all hands; and separating those who had rebelled from those who had taken no part in the mutiny, he told the former that he had a good mind to flog them all round—thought, upon the whole, he would do so—he ought to—justice demanded it; but for the present, considering their timely surrender, he would let them go with a reprimand, which he accordingly administered in the vernacular.Chapters 52-54 -- The Albatross; The Gam; The Town-Ho's Story (75% in)
