I see as you're a cove as takes things nice an' quiet, an' so long as you do I'm your friend Bob's my name, an' bobbish is my natur'. Lord! the way I've seen misfort'nate coves take on at sight o' them 'bracelets' is something out-rageous! But you why, you're a different kidney you're my kind, you are what do you say, Jeremy?" "Don't like 'is eye!" growled that individual.
"Is he bobbish, too, like you. Are you not Bob Bobbish?" "No, no, I'm Bob Roberts," said the middy, laughing. "I mean, Tom Long is as brave as most fellows."

"Pretty bobbish," replied Jack. "Any news?" inquired Mr Clearemout. "No, nothing moving," said Jack languidly.

Here is a little pot of grease which I have been concocting and intend to lay on immediately."
What if I sticks my stones and my bricks With mortar I takes from the snobbish? All who can feel for the public weal Likes the public-house to be bobbish. CHORUS. Likes the public-house to be bobbish. "There, gemmen!" said the publican, stopping short, "that's the pith of the matter, and split my wig but I'm short of breath now.
