For there, there are none lost. They live again! I suggested once that we should build a house fitting those grand sea-cliffs, sometimes to occupy it. But Vesty, ever wise, was silent, troubled, and I read her thought. No, we should introduce no discordant element there, of liveries and servants, and riches and seclusive walls, of mine and thine.
Grant had come to Oakdale late the previous autumn, and was living with his aunt, an odd, seclusive spinster, by the name of Priscilla Kent. Two girls, sauntering down the path with their arms about each other, met the approaching boys, and paused a moment to chat with them. "Phil's sister is struck on our gay cowboy," observed Cooper, grinning.
For something like another quarter of an hour we followed our benevolent guide, who led us into a quarter of comfortable and respectable appearance. It was not inferior to the Armenian quarter of Smyrna, except in respect to pictorial effect as a whole. The houses were particularly good, and built in a more seclusive spirit; the better ones being almost all detached.
F. H. The mother was living, the father dead. Otherwise no pertinent information was secured. P. H. The patient was said always to have been somewhat seclusive, mingling little with other people; this tendency was so strong that she would leave the room when visitors came. She always slept a great deal. It was stated that she was able to do heavy housework quite well, but never learned cooking.
I wish she were not so seclusive. I'd like to know her." "But do you suppose this is her real self?" "It must be. She doesn't seem to be acting at all. I must say I prefer her in her usual parts."

At adolescence there is a keen revival of interest but more resistance to open family discussion than in the pre-adolescent age. Maturing children are touchy, sensitive, self-conscious, modest, seclusive.
Rebellion against the monotony and the seclusive character of the home will increase rather than diminish, and it must be faced without prejudice and without any reliance on any authority, either of church or state, that will force women back to "womanly" ways of thinking, feeling or doing.
What ground have we here for supposing that motives, whose action hitherto has always been strictly limited to passionate and seclusive idealists turning their backs on the world, will ever become general among the monopolists of that business ability, the object of whom is to fill the world with increasing comforts and luxuries.
He may of course be seclusive and apt to feel the constraints of contact with others as wearying and unsatisfactory; he is not easily bored or made restless.
P. H. The father stated that the patient was always “cranky,” had outbursts of temper, even when a small child and was quarrelsome; also said that she was “seclusive,” had few friends, was averse to meeting people, never had a beau. She was taken out of school at 14 because she was not promoted on two successive occasions from the same class.
