The poor fellow's detail of grievances was here interrupted by the shrill voice of his helpmate, screaming from the kitchen, to which he instantly hobbled, craving pardon of his guests.
Здесь дальнейшие подробности злоключений бедняги были прерваны пронзительным визгом его подруги, завопившей из кухни, и он мгновенно заковылял туда, попросив у гостей прощения.

Such ecstasy at God's approach is well known to some young priests: it is a blissful moment when all is hushed, and the only desire is but a boundless craving for purity.
То были первые восторги слияния с богом, ведомые иным молодым священникам, та блаженная пора, когда все в человеке умолкает и желания его обращаются в безмерную потребность чистоты.

At the end of that time, however, his memory of his wrongs and his craving for revenge were quite as keen as on that memorable night when he had stood by John Ferrier's grave.
Несмотря на долгий срок, он так же остро чувствовал свое горе и так же жаждал мести, как в ту памятную ночь, когда он стоял у могилы Джона Ферье.

But this thirst for lawlessness proceeds most frequently, perhaps, from a latent craving for discipline and 'seemliness'--(I am using your own words).
Но это желание беспорядка - и даже чаще всего - происходит, может быть, от затаенной жажды порядка и "благообразия" (употребляю ваше слово)?

Perhaps the cold, or the dampness, or the dark, or the wind that howled under the window and tossed the trees roused a sort of persistent craving for the fantastic.
Холод ли, мрак ли, сырость ли, ветер ли, завывавший под окном и качавший деревья, вызвали в нем какую-то упорную фантастическую наклонность и желание, - но ему все стали представляться цветы.

But it is probable that it is at the bottom of the craving to exploit and that it is the soil from which the expressed demands draw their sustenance.
Но вполне вероятно, что эта потребность лежит в основе стремления к эксплуатации и является той почвой, из которой предъявляемые требования черпают свою энергию.
