My father made all possible speed to find his breeches. Susannah got the start, and kept it 'Tis Tris something, cried Susannah There is no christian-name in the world, said the curate, beginning with Tris but Tristram. Then 'tis Tristram-gistus, quoth Susannah. There is no gistus to it, noodle!
He implored the ferocious Robespierre to honour the heavens by bestowing, on a new planet pretended to be discovered, his ci-devant Christian-name, Maximilian. In a letter of congratulation to Bonaparte, on the occasion of his present elevation, he also implored him to honour the God of the Christians by styling himself Jesus Christ the First, Emperor of the French, instead of Napoleon the First.
