They did not notice that this pseudo-analysis ceases to be an objective analysis, and becomes a sickish liking for rotten things coming from two causes: in the first place from the corruption of the taste, then from greater facility of producing striking effects.
She understood now why the Bible always talked of man as a vile creature born in sin. Jeb was stealthily watching her ghastly face, her limp body. "Feelin' sickish?" he asked. A slight movement of the head in assent. "I kin ride over to Beecamp and fetch Doc Christie." Another and negative shake of the head, more determined. The pale lips murmured, "No no, thank you." She was not hating him.
An' that's thrue, I must turn back and go to them I'm too long away: still, something ails me I'm all sickish, my head and back especially." "Go home to your own place," he replied; "maybe it's the sickness you're takin." "Oh, no," she replied, "I felt this way once or twice before, an' I know it'll go off me good-bye." "Good-bye, Sarah, an' remember, honor bright and saicresy."
I said days, I thought, and Jerry sighed a little and went back to his watching-place. Somehow I didn't feel very hungry, myself, that is, not the kind of hungry you are when you've played tennis all morning and then gone in swimming. There was a sharp, sickish feeling inside me and my head felt a little queer, but it was not exactly like being hungry.
Three bounds down the stairs took me into the cabin, my pistol forward, my nerves on hair-trigger, ready for anything that moved. Silence! that sickish silence which permeates places of death! No human sound could be detected no sound of any kind, except an uncanny creaking beneath the floor where the old masts rested in their steps, and a gentle swish of water outside the hull.
The cup floated and quickly began to melt. As it did so he waited attentively until the proper moment. Then with a deft motion he seized the whole thing with a long pair of tongs and plunged it into a vat of running water. A huge cloud of steam filled the room. I felt a drowsy sensation stealing over me as the sickish sweet smell from the furnace increased.
Also, a sickish, sinking feeling at the lower end of his breastbone made him certain that he was about to break in two; and a sudden wobbling of the knees threatened to bring him down upon them. Barber closed the hall door at his back gently, so as not to waken his father. His eyes were still roving the kitchen appraisingly.
Come, now, S'tira, you let him go, or he sha'n't come back any more." They had a parting that Lemuel's mother would have called sickish without question; but it all seemed heavenly sweet and right. Statira said now he had got to kiss 'Manda Grier too; and when he insisted, her chin knocked against his, and saved her lips, and she gave him a good box on the ear.
He firmly intended to do this, but he thought he would wait just a few minutes more, and he stretched out his legs and got comfortable in the chair. Three minutes more and the watchman was asleep sound asleep, while a strange, sweet, sickish odor seemed to fill the atmosphere about him. There was a noise at the door of the shed, a door in which there were several cracks.
At night we found some fruit which appeared to the eyes to be very delicious, different from any we had seen in our travels. It resembled a fruit which grows in the West Indies, called a Jack, about the size of an orange. We being very dry and hungry immediately gathered some of this fruit, but finding it of a sweet, sickish taste, I eat but two. Randall eat freely.
