"Driveller" and "The Cub-Slut" got along well, although, by what any one could discover, "The Cub-Slut" treated the bully more like a servant than anything else. "The Cub-Slut" was said to be very outspoken. One Sunday, on the promenade, she had answered one of the young ladies of Castro rudely.
I find I have strangely mistaken my own character and talents I once thought to have driven the world before me, and to have whipped opposition into immediate compliance: but it seems I am myself one of the very sorry wretches at whom I was so all alive and ready to give, and spurn! These are odd and unaccountable things! And it appears that I am a very poor creature! A most indubitable driveller!
The chauffeur saw that the discharges came from the low windows of a loom, and backing the motor, he returned rapidly, passed out the Cart Gate, at risk of running into it, went down to the highway, and drove at high speed to Caesar's house. A moment later "Driveller" Juan and "Sparkler" came out of the loom and disappeared down a lane.
The bully did not wait for him to finish his sentence, but, addressing him in a much sterner tone than before, called out: "I know not why I come not down and give thee play with my cudgel, whilst thou givest me sign of life, ass, tedious driveller that thou must needs be, and drunken sot, thus to disturb our night's rest."

Such was the personal appearance of Boabdil el Chico, the last of the Moorish dynasty in Spain.

Yet, if I follow these maxims, am I wise? alas! the whole world would call me a driveller and a madman.
The season of youth generally determines to which of these classes you will ultimately belong. It is here, at school, that you decide whether, when you come to man's estate, you will be a governing man, or whether you will be a mere aimless driveller.
'How should that be? asked the surly villain. 'Why, replied Jack, 'the people got rusty about it, and would not deal, and they had bought so many brooms that 'Well, for all that, said the other, 'I think we should be down upon the fellow one of these darkmans and let him get it well. 'But old Meg's asleep now, said another; 'she grows a driveller, and is afraid of her shadow.
'But, Hatteraick, my good friend, do but rise and speak to me, said Glossin. 'I will not! answered the savage, doggedly. 'You have caused all the mischief; you would not let Meg keep the boy; she would have returned him after he had forgot all. 'Why, Hatteraick, you are turned driveller!
"That is well! that is well!" said Lumley, rubbing his hands when he was left alone: "the old driveller will be my locum tenens, till years and renown enable me to become his successor. Meanwhile, I shall be really what he will be in name."
No doubt he chose him for his victim, because he was so slim, lanky, and weak; perhaps he had some other reason for attacking him. One afternoon, at twilight, "Driveller" halted "Lengthy," demanded an explanation, insulted him, and on finding his victim made no reply, gave him a blow. The street was wet, and "Driveller" stepped on a fruit-skin and fell headlong.
