R. M. (Robert Michael) Ballantyne - Martin Rattler

I will be judged by the fair mistress of your affections. Crave pardon no offence, I trust. Pray, consult the glass one touch of the crisping tongs, to reduce this straggler. Thank your munificence, sir hope your custom while you stay in Greenwich. Would you have a tune on that ghittern, to put your temper in concord for the day? Twang, twang twang, twang, dillo.
Sir Walter Scott - The Fortunes of Nigel

"It is rather generous in you than just," said the poet; "and, though I hate to speak ill of any person's production nay, I never do it, nor will but yet, to do justice to the actors, what could Booth or Betterton have made of such horrible stuff as Fenton's Mariamne, Frowd's Philotas, or Mallet's Eurydice; or those low, dirty, last-dying-speeches, which a fellow in the city of Wapping, your Dillo or Lillo, what was his name, called tragedies?"
Henry Fielding - Joseph Andrews, Volume 2
