   Hello, all   
   In "The Mysteries of Udolpho" I have met with the   
   application of `unworthy' directly to a noun, that is   
   without the usual mediation of `of':   
      
      Besides, sir, your refusal wounds my pride; I must   
      believe you think my offer unworthy your acceptance.   
      
   What do you think of this rare usage, and what dictionary   
   openly recognises it (I have found none)?  This direct   
   government sounds to me better than the one via a   
   preposition!
