With this I left him, and skulked out of the town, not paying my respects tomy other benefactors; but giving them a thousand blessings from my heart.

I don't know how anybody/anycreature could sneak around with a word as clumsy and boulder-footed as this. Besides, it resembles skunk so much that I think you'd smell a skulk from half a mile away.

You had entrails in your college dining hall?

Whenever I hear this word, I think of some college friends who tickled themselves to death by uttering the following sentence (context not important): "He can't very well skulk out of the dining hall, entrails in tow!"
