Even though he was a beginner, Ennis didn't need an instruction manual to give a perfect performance.

Ennis shaved the whiskers off of his chin while Jack showed what a can opener was all about.

"D" is despise

"...Ennis never got to be more than a rough-cut ranch hand and Jack Twist chose rodeo as an expression of cowboy.  Neither of them was ever a top hand, and they met herding sheep, animals most real cowpokes despise."

Ennis's fear of people finding out his secret was his most enisling characteristic.

Ennis to Jack:  "What if Aguirre finds out?  We're supposed to guard the sheep, not eat 'em."

The boys checked each other out while Aguirre was haranguing them about breaking the forest service rules.

Jack found the intervals between "fishing trips" almost intolerable.

"L" is long-hoped-for

Upon learning that Ennis was divorced, Jack drove to Wyoming, convinced his long-hoped-for wish was about to come true.

"M" is minimizing

Ennis was minimizing his hurt on leaving Jack; soon, the gut cramps let the hurt out.
