A Foreign Londoner

exasperation irritation, frustration

remorselessly No stoppin, without regret or guilt

extinguished wiped out, destroyed

substituting temporarily take place of other teacher

succumb to die from

promptly at once

fidelity loyalty

relent change your mind

reckless don't care about risk or danger

atrocity extremely wicked or cruel act involving physical violence

concede admit

disgrace something very bad and unacceptable

cringe shudder, tremble, quiver

slush snow that has begun to melt

enfold cover, surround

foul disgusting

toil hard work

adversity difficult or unpleasant situation

mere only

admission permission to enter

temporary not permanent

frostily in an unfriendly way

trudge walk slowly with heavy steps

drudgery hard, dull work

the whole town was extinguished after the volcano eruption.
