I ain't never 'eard o' the Griller till we come 'ere, and I never 'eard o' t'other bloke neether but I 'olds by the Griller, cos of 'is name and I backs me fancy afore I sees 'em. Loser to 'elp the winner with the gallon." "Done, Bill," replied the challenged promptly, on hearing the last condition. "Yus, 'Enery," replied William, diving deeply for it.
'It seemed to me as if a cove was a follerin' 'im, leastways there was a bloke as was a-keepin' close at 'is 'eels, though I don't know what 'is little game was, I'm sure. Ask the pleesman he knows, he knows everything the pleesman do. I turned to the 'pleesman. 'Who is this man? The 'pleesman' put his hands behind his back, and threw out his chest. His manner was distinctly affable.
John William Bloke, of Virginia City, walked into the office where we are sub-editor at a late hour last night, with an expression of profound and heartfelt suffering upon his countenance, and, sighing heavily, laid the following item reverently upon the desk, and walked slowly out again.
"You start with the obituary of some old bloke who was so disgustingly old when he consented to die that there is no one living who can tell you when he was born, or who were his father and mother; for, of course, the old idiot takes care not to leave a blessed document of any kind which can aid a fellow in his researches.
The shearers looked at each other gravely. Then they all winked. "The spoutin' bloke sez he likes his fill iv tangle," said Bill, "well he'll get it t-night. I'm goin t' stand a spree fer me poor relation."
"But give the bloke a chance, give 'im a run for it. Why, I wouldn't kill a dog so; it's awful an' an' he saved my life, chaps; he saved my life." "But he shot a woman," said Charley.

JOMER, a sweetheart or female favourite, has probably some connection in derivation with choomer, a kiss, in Gipsy. BLOKE, a common coarse word for a man, may be of Gipsy origin; since, as the author of the Slang Dictionary declares, it may be found in Hindustani, as Loke. "Lok, people, a world, region."
"Yes," resumed "Pongo," while Joe Bates was lighting his cigarette, "this ain't what you'd call war. I wouldn't mind goin' for ole Fritz with an 'ammer, but, what with 'owitzers and 'crumps, and 'Black Marias, and 'pip-squeaks' and 'whizz-bangs, the infantry bloke ain't got a chanst. 'Ere 'ave I been in a bloomin' trench for six months, and what 'ave I used my bay'nit for?
"Now, don't vote for me or for Henderson, vote for the best measures for the country. "When there's a swell bloke like you in the field." "Pip! pip! Hooray! Cock-a-doodle-do!" came the chorus. The "Pip! pip!" was a new sound to them, having been introduced to represent the noise made by the propulsion of a motor-car, in which set the candidate shone.
She she sometimes I think she's made a way out of the lines after another bloke a kind o' Dutchy spy 'oo was a pal of 'ers, or or else she's dead. There's times I've dreamed I seen 'er dead!" His voice bounded up in that queer squeak again. The word "dead" was wrung out of him like a long-fanged double molar.
