"Yes, suh," mumbled the drowsy youngster. "Reckon Sol'mun neveh had to gallop a string an' ride 'em too. I sutny earns whut I gits when I git it."
However, when his father had died at the ripe age of ninety-three died in the harness, even while gingerly and thriftily knuckling along a weight into the eighth notch of the bar of the scoop scales Ivory had come back as sole heir to store, stock and stand, a seventy-two-year-old black sheep bringing a most amazing tail behind him no less than a band chariot, a half dozen animal cages, a tent loaded on a great cart, and various impedimenta of "Buck's Leviathan Circus and Menagerie."
Rawdon Crawley retreated with Lord Southdown into a window, where the latter was heard to laugh immoderately, as Rawdon told him the story of Lady Bareacres wanting horses and "knuckling down by Jove," to Mrs. Crawley. "I think I needn't be afraid of THAT woman," Becky thought.

FitzPatrick regained his wits in pain, and so knew he was still on earth. Every movement cost him a moan, and some agency outside himself inflicted added torture.

LEGS AND FEET Fore-legs very short and strong in bone, slightly bent inwards; seen in profile, moderately straight and never bending forward or knuckling over. Feet large, round, and strong, with thick pads, compact and well-arched toes, nails strong and black. The dog must stand equally on all parts of the foot. Loins short and strong.
And you, Harry, now I 'll ask you, do you mean your wife egad, it'd be a pretty scene, with your princess in hip-up petticoats, stiff as bottle-funnel top down'ards, airing a whole leg, and knuckling a tambourine! 'Not crying, my dear lad? Captain Bulsted put his arm round me kindly, and tried to catch a glimpse of my face. I let him see I was not going through that process.
The gentleman in the chariot opened a window. 'Where did she stop you, my man? he asked idly. 'Half a mile this side of Oxford, your worship, the postboy answered, knuckling his forehead.
