Out here water is precious stuff, as you know.

And how had he managed to spill so much of the precious stuff on his shirt?

All I ask is that a little of that precious stuff be granted unto them.

He himself carried the precious stuff, escorted by a small army of commissioned officers, to the palace.

The tie cut through its wall, spilling blood, the precious stuff.

You can't afford to go wasting precious stuff like that, now can you?

But travel costs money, and I have but little of the precious stuff.

I could not afford to waste such precious stuff on you.
