Which two words in this excerpt from Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol reflect the theme of loneliness?
The jocund travellers came on; and as they came, Scrooge knew and named them every one. Why was he rejoiced beyond all bounds to see them! Why did his cold eye glisten, and his heart leap up as they went past! Why was he filled with gladness when he heard them give each other Merry Christmas, as they parted at cross-roads and bye-ways, for their several homes! What was merry Christmas to Scrooge? Out upon merry Christmas! What good had it ever done to him?

Fowls clucked and strutted in the stables; and the coach-houses and sheds were over-run with grass.
