"Well, Jennie, say what your trouble is...I can already see by your face that there's trouble, or something distasteful in general...Go ahead and tell it!" Jennka for a long time plucked her handkerchief and looked at the tips of her slippers, as though, gathering her strength. Timorousness had taken possession of her the necessary and important words would not come into her mind, for anything.
It was as though some one had whispered the truth into her ear and she was beginning to believe. From that moment her courage began to fail. The glow from her lantern was a menace instead of a help. A sweet timorousness enveloped her and something tingled she knew not what. Spattering raindrops whizzed in her face, ominous forerunners from the inky sky.
He knew and he knew it with a full appreciation of the irony that lurked in the situation that her very timorousness was now endowing him with a new and reckless courage. So he took her hand, gratefully, before he spoke again. "Well, whatever happens, we are now in this, not from choice, as you said before, but from necessity. If it has dangers, Frank, we must face them."
The nature of his talents, and the timorousness of disposition connected with them, had made him assume the pliability of the versatile old Earl of Northampton, who explained the art by which he kept his ground during all the changes of state, from the reign of Henry VIII. to that of Elizabeth, by the frank avowal, that he was born of the willow, not of the oak.
I argue from this that they had undergone no real transformation as yet; that at bottom they were still under the spell of a timorousness born of generations of unsuccess, and a lack of confidence in each other and in their leaders born of old and bitter experience in the way of treacheries of all sorts for their kings had been treacherous to their great vassals and to their generals, and these in turn were treacherous to the head of the state and to each other.
She sat so erect there, and smiled her abstract, indifferent smile. Elena, blushing for some unknown reason, moved silently closer and there was a strange timorousness in her movement a timorous desire. Piotr complied with her wish, and sat down at her side. She looked at him tenderly, lovingly. Her glances touched him. He thought: "Why do I not love Elena? Or is it she alone that I really love?
He is said to have had at the same time "courage and boldness, cowardice and timorousness, a love for learning and vindictiveness towards the learned, an inclination to righteousness and a disposition to slay the righteous."
He went on and presently he felt the very faintest possible tingling of his skin and heard the barest whisper of a sound, and smelled the jungle reek as something so diluted that he was hardly sure he smelled it. He went on, and those faint sensations ceased. Presently, impatient of his own timorousness, he turned the device off again. He had walked through the terror beam.
She made a repelling gesture with her hand, and stood a perfect picture of prohibition, at full length, in the dark frame of the doorway. But we must betray Hepzibah's secret, and confess that the native timorousness of her character even now developed itself in a quick tremor, which, to her own perception, set each of her joints at variance with its fellows.
We only desire and pray you to endeavour yourselves in the execution of that your charge casting utterly away and banishing from you such fear and timorousness, or rather despair, as by your said letters we perceive ye have conceived reducing to your memories in the lieu and stead thereof, as a thing continually lying before your eyes and incessantly sounded in your ears, the justice of our cause, which cannot at length be shadowed, but shall shine and shew itself to the confusion of our adversaries.
