"Naw, he won't, now," snarled Copenny rancorously. "Thar will be a way ter stop his mouth." "Why, he is too leetle ter talk. He don't sense nuthin'," cried old Clenk, with an eager note of expostulation, attesting that he was human, after all. "Don't do nuthin' else rash, Phineas Copenny, fur the love of God!"
This brave and unfortunate explorer was rancorously opposed by the Portuguese and eventually murdered by his own men. He was followed by Richard Jobson, to whom we owe the first account of the Gambia River.
Hate me not rancorously because of that I did with thee; for he who hath power and forgiveth, his reward Allah giveth; even as saith the poet, 'Sow kindness-seed in the unfittest stead; * 'Twill not be wasted whereso thou shalt sow: For kindness albe buried long, yet none * Shall reap the crop save sower who garred it grow."
On the whole, from what I heard, more than from what I saw, I was disappointed in the state of society. The whole community is rancorously divided into parties on almost every subject. Among those who, from their station in life, ought to be the best, many live in such open profligacy that respectable people cannot associate with them.

"You shot the wolf and stampeded the cattle, and the herders at the cow-pens on the Keowee River can't round them up again!" cried one of the settlers. "The cattle have run to the Congarees by this time!" declared another pessimistically. "And it was you that shot the wolf!" cried "X" rancorously.
But she jumped at the opportunity of taking her revenge, and said: "Let me be! You have been behaving odiously. You treat me worse than you would a servant." And she went on in that strain, setting forth all her grievances volubly, shrilly, rancorously. He raised his hands wearily, smiled bitterly, and left her. No one heard the report of the revolver.
For his part he rancorously hated hydropathics, having once spent a black week under the roof of one in his wife's company. A thought flitted over his mind which he was too loyal to formulate. Once he and his wife had had similar likings, but they had taken different roads since their child died. Janet!
In the original draft of the Advertisement to the same work he expresses himself as "proud of a book which has had the honour of being rancorously abused and execrated by every unmanly scoundrel, every sycophantic lacquey, and EVERY POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS RENEGADE in Britain." A few years previously, Borrow had written to John Murray, "I have always myself.
It is avowedly opposed to the most time-honoured proprieties of social life; it is opposed to nature; it is opposed to revelation.... This unblushing female Socialism defies alike apostles and prophets. In this respect no kindred movement is so decidedly infidel, so rancorously and avowedly anti-biblical. "It is equally opposed to nature and the established order of society founded upon it.
