The negroes about the windlass joined in with the old sailor; but, as they became talkative, he by degrees became mute, and at length quite glum, seemed morosely unwilling to answer more questions, and yet, all the while, this ursine air was somehow mixed with his sheepish one.
One was known as Roughit; and the other was called Lance. Roughit was big, with heavy limbs and a rather brutal face. He wore his hair and beard very long, and his eyes looked morosely from under thick reddish eyebrows. He scarcely ever spoke to anybody; and some of the superstitious fishermen did not like to meet him in the morning, because they thought he always brought them bad luck.
He's a big enough friend of the sailor to waste no time before doing his turn." Ferens shook his head morosely. "That may be," he said; "but the petitions were sent weeks ago, and there's no sign from Lord Howe. He was at Bath for gout. My idea is he referred them to the admiral commanding at Portsmouth, and was told that behind the whole thing is conspiracy French socialism and English politics.
But John Egerton did not share his enthusiasm. He was watching morosely three figures that were just disappearing into the church ahead of him. They were Jessie and her father and mother. She had formed the habit lately of going out only with her parents, and when they remained at home she stayed with them, much to their wonder and delight.
"Ellen came here yesterday and asked you to bring me a message when I came home. You didn't do it." Marie's face became set, but she did not reply. "It was only by pure chance that I met her yesterday, otherwise we should have missed one another." "Then I must have forgotten it," said Marie morosely. "Why, of course you forgot it. But that's the second time this week.
As Lord Icenway grew older he became crustier and crustier, and whenever he set eyes on his wife's boy by her other husband he would burst out morosely, saying, ''Tis a very odd thing, my lady, that you could oblige your first husband, and couldn't oblige me. 'Ah! if I had only thought of it sooner! she murmured. 'What? said he. 'Nothing, dearest, replied Lady Icenway.
You did the right thing for us, in not letting them signal to their families. But you don't need to worry about too much sympathy for the children!" "And I got them into it," said Soames, morosely. "We did," insisted Gail. "And we did right. But I'm going to do what I can to keep it from being worse for them than I can help. If you'll join me " "Naturally!" said Soames. He went moodily away.
He stepped out into the cabin, with its panelled walls of cedar and maple, and with its long table that seated ten, and at which he had eaten by himself through all the weary time. No laughter and clatter and wordy argument of the mess-room had been his. He had eaten silently, almost morosely, his silence emulated by the noiseless Asiatic who had served him.
“Well, my lad, I’ve never met any one like you,” Fyodor Pavlovitch said shortly, and gave him ten roubles. We may add that he not only believed in his honesty, but had, for some reason, a liking for him, although the young man looked as morosely at him as at every one and was always silent. He rarely spoke.
How about you do you read books?" "No!" replied Foma, briefly. "Ah!" "I don't like them." "Aha! But they might nevertheless be of some help to you," said Taras, and a smile passed across his lips. Since men cannot help me in my thoughts books can certainly do nothing for me," ejaculated Foma, morosely. He began to feel awkward and weary with this indifferent man.
