They've all arrived there on an emotion and when hit with a simple question of logic they can't answer.
I don't know which edition you're referring to. I suppose the lines 43-58 are actually the third paragraph. So, here's the answer:
The narrator's relationship with her husband has changed because of a supernatural influence that she can't exactly explain or fathom. She doesn't really know what happened, when, or why, but at night her husband was not the same person she married. "It’s the moon’s fault, and the blood. It was in his father’s blood," she reasons. Her husband is alienated because of this, and somehow she feels that they don't belong together anymore. He goes out to find those who are like him. "Something comes over the one that’s got the curse in his blood, they say, and he gets up because he can’t sleep, and goes out into the glaring sun, and goes off all alone — drawn to find those like him."

In the given passage from <em>The Open Boat</em> by Stephen Crane, the four survivors of the shipwreck were on a lifeboat, hoping and looking for the sight of any help, land or people to be saved. And in their eagerness to be found, they were oblivious to the fact that there was no lifesaving station nearby. And as a result, they blamed the <em>"nation's lifesavers"</em> for their poor eyesight and their inability to see them struggle out in the sea. The author used the word <em>"opprobrious"</em> to state how the four men<u> criticized and expressed their negative feelings</u> about the inability of the men supposed to be out working to save any survivors out at sea.
<span>Many Americans view the Victorian era as conventional and even prudish due to the way women are portrayed in the novels and the common themes of marriage and social classes. However, upon taking a closer look at many of the texts, such as Pride and Prejudice, the reader can see the way that women are presented is not entirely conventional. The women are shown to be dynamic characters and capable of thinking for themselves, despite society's idea that women are merely objects for betrothal. Such can be seen in the acts of characters such as Elizabeth, who wades through mud and ruins her dress in order to care of her sister--much to the displeasure of some of the older and more conventional female characters. Elizabeth also turns down marriage proposals for the sheer fact that she does not enjoy the man proposing, which was an oddity during the era of arranged marriages for economic gain. Throughout the novel, Jane Austen seems to push gender norms of her time, which is why I disagree with the idea that writings of this time were primarily conventional or even overly prudish.</span>
