His efforts at indifference were chafing his inmost being; the cloak of insouciance was stifling him; the primeval man was struggling for expression, that brute-like rage whose only limits are its own fury and violence.
Then, and only then, under that recognition of the friendship that had never failed and never doubted, the courage of the condemned gave way, and his limbs shook with a great shiver of intolerable torture; and at the look that came upon his face, the look of death, brute-like anguish, the man who loved him remembered all remembered that he stood there in the morning light only to be shot down like a beast of prey.
To rediscover the ease and luxury of lying down, not brute-like, but man-like, seemed to me an immense thing. I had had my first night's sleep on a bed for nearly three months, and I wished never to rise again. I wished to be immensely lazy for a long period not to have to move or think or act.

But as ye will, as ye will." "As we speak our forefathers thought," said Gelon. "And, Pausanias," said Cleomenes gravely, "as we speak, so think the Ephors."
Perhaps, with their brute-like instinct, they perceived her unhealthy and increasing sentimentality, her morbid reveries, and the disordered and pitiful state of her mind which so much sorrow and affliction had unhinged. Happening to go through the stables the day before she was to leave Les Peuples, Jeanne came upon Massacre, whose existence she had entirely forgotten.

They are often filthy in their habits, and have no sense of decency; and several cases have been published of their bodies being remarkably hairy. Prof. Laycock sums up the character of brute-like idiots by calling them "theroid;" 'Journal of Mental Science, July 1863. Dr.
Among the starving mountaineers of the Hartz the degraded peasantry of Bohemia the savage contadini of Central Italy, or the dwellers on the hills of Provence and beside the swift Rhone, we almost invariably found kind, honest hearts, and an aspiration for something better, betokening the consciousness that such brute-like, obedient existence was not their proper destiny.
