Sullen \Sul"len\, a. [OE. solein, solain, lonely, sullen;
through Old French fr. (assumed) LL. solanus solitary, fr. L.
solus alone. See Sole, a.]
1. Lonely; solitary; desolate. [Obs.] --Wyclif (Job iii. 14).
[1913 Webster]

2. Gloomy; dismal; foreboding. --Milton.

humor; morose.

6. Heavy; dull; sluggish. "The larger stream was placid, and

Syn: Sulky; sour; cross; ill-natured; morose; peevish;

sullenness. The former may be an innate disposition;
the latter, a disposition occasioned by recent injury.
Thus we are in a sullen mood, and in a sulky fit.
[1913 Webster]

The dreaded east is all the wind that blows.
