He much resembles in this the Neapolitan lazzarone in fact, I do not know of any other individual in Eastern Asia that is such a worthy rival of the Italian macaroni-eater.
"The same evening the Englishman left Naples on board a steamboat, and the lazzarone was lost in the crowd of his comrades; the six plasters he had got from his employer enabling him to live in what a lazzarone considers luxury for nearly as many months. "The Englishman had been twelve hours at Naples, and had done the three things that are most expressly forbidden to be done there.
At the upper end is a platform, with a large horse-shoe table upon it; and a President and Council sitting round all judges of the Law. The man on the little stool behind the President, is the Capo Lazzarone, a kind of tribune of the people, appointed on their behalf to see that all is fairly conducted: attended by a few personal friends.
I hope the Capo Lazzarone may not desert him for some other member of the Calendar, but he seems to threaten it. Where the winners may be, nobody knows. They certainly are not present; the general disappointment filling one with pity for the poor people.
It was strange to have to recognise in a scrap of a lazzarone a competitor to her magnificent Major. It was she who scented danger first, for the Major was anecdotically unconscious. They saw a couple of drawings that I had made of the establishment, and Mrs. Monarch hinted that it never would have struck her that he had sat for them.
I will toss my cap over the mill for the second time. I will get money from somewhere. If I am not allowed to show myself, I will look on from a distance, hidden in the crowd. At a pinch I will disguise myself as a guide at Pompeii, a lazzarone at Naples. She shall find a sonnet in the bunch of fresh flowers offered her by a peasant at the door of her hotel.
Now, you know that people who enjoy much are naturally stupid. Touraine admirably explains the lazzarone.
The direct, not the indirect object of the wish, is what he wants. The lazzarone of Naples prays to his patron saint to favor his choice of a lottery ticket; if it turn out an unlucky number he will take the little leaden image of the saint from his pocket, revile it, spit on it, and trample it in the mud.
Monarch's face slightly convulsed when, on her coming back with her husband, she found Oronte installed. It was strange to have to recognise in a scrap of a lazzarone a competitor to her magnificent Major. It was she who scented danger first, for the Major was anecdotically unconscious.
I promise you the contents of the pocket of the next person who passes. "'Very good; but I will select the individual, or else you will be making a bad choice again. "'As your excellency pleases. "The sbirro folded his arms in a most dignified manner, and leaned his back against a post; the lazzarone stretched himself on the pavement at his feet.
