Moody feeding nickels into the slot-machine with one hand and eating zwieback with the other made me nervous. After a while he went to sleep over it, and when he had slipped a nickel in his mouth and tried to put the zwieback in the machine he muttered something and went up to the house. I was glad to be alone.
"Now, miss," he said, "you give me your word of honor," he stopped and looked round at Moody with a grin "and you give me yours, that you won't either of you break the seal on this envelope till the expiration of one week from the present day. There are the conditions, Miss Isabel, on which I'll give you your information. If you stop to dispute with me, the candle's alight, and I'll burn it!"
"He wasn't, you know, a kind of fellow who would force you to leave the table by sneering at you in hall " He still continued to eye Kennedy, but in vain, for Kennedy kept his moody glance on the table and was silent, and would not look at him or speak to him.
But now he did bestir himself, in a moody melancholy sort of manner; for his manner in all things latterly had become moody and melancholy. In the mean time Captain Donnellan and the two strangers sat almost in silence in the dining-room.

"Talk on, sir, I should like to hear you talk. Let me listen and hold my tongue." Leonard pulled his hat over his brows, and gave up his moody, questioning, turbulent mind to his new acquaintance. And John Burley talked on.
Arthur would not leave the little village of Venning. Neither Susie nor the doctor could get him to make any decision. None of them spoke of the night which they had spent in the woods of Skene; but it coloured all their thoughts, and they were not free for a single moment from the ghastly memory of it. They seemed still to hear the sound of that passionate weeping. Arthur was moody.
I don't know what I might have done no man can say into what shape circumstances may warp him but I hardly think I should have had the conscience to accept the favours of a new lover whilst sitting over the poor remains of the old one; upon my soul, I don't. Knight, in moody meditation, continued looking towards the tomb, which stood staring them in the face like an avenging ghost.
A second expedition, this time to Brazil, and then he came back to meet the girl of the hyacinth letter. And after that, after he had broken from the bondage which held Moody, and Fordney, and Whittemore, he went back to his many adventures. It was the North that held him.
