bounty

For me this word has nothing but positive connotations together with related words: bountiful, and bounteous.
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver Proverbs 25:11

Ah, but do we not also have "put a bounty on his head"? Good for the one doing the capturing/killing, not quite so for the hunted.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.

Then there was "Mutiny on the Bounty."
It is dark at night, but the Sun will come up and then we can see.
