1." They remembered too solid flesh, too precise a stink, a rattle and a soughing that thrilled the nerves and the cartilage of their growing ears." (p.229)
2.My guess: Since "soughing" is paired with the world rattle, I think it is some kind of sound that the creature is making.
3. Definition: soughing: to make a moaning or sighing sound. (merriam-webster dictionary)
4. Explanation:This was an interesting word which combines moaning and sighing. I've never come across it before but it does help me visualize the thing a bit better.
