Syn: Syn. Loneliness; soitariness; loneness; retiredness;
recluseness. -- Solitude, Retirement, Seclusion,
Loneliness.
Usage: Retirement is a withdrawal from general society,
implying that a person has been engaged in its scenes.
Solitude describes the fact that a person is alone;
seclusion, that he is shut out from others, usually by
his own choice; loneliness, that he feels the pain and
oppression of being alone. Hence, retirement is
opposed to a gay, active, or public life; solitude, to
society; seclusion, to freedom of access on the part
of others; and loneliness, enjoyment of that society
which the heart demands.
