Lucre to the priest haughtily, "that he would have died an idolater." Bob squeezed Mr. Lucre's hand again. "And you thought," replied Father M'Cabe, "that he would die a Protestant or a heretic, which is the same thing." Bob squeezed Father M'Cabe's hand once more.

"Darby, I fear that Mr. Lucre has not improved your perceptions of spiritual things." "Why, as to that, Mr. M'Slime, if you knew Mr. Lucre's piety as well as I do however, as you say yourself, sir, it's known, or rather it's unknown, the piety of that gintleman."

At length corruption, like a general flood, Did deluge all, and avarice creeping on, Spread, like a low-born mist, and hid the sun. Statesmen and patriots plied alike the stocks, Peeress and butler shared alike the box; And judges jobbed, and bishops bit the town, And mighty dukes packed cards for half-a-crown: Britain was sunk in lucre's sordid charms. Pope.
Puir thing! d'ye think she'll not be sufficiently sad when my coffin be borne away, and she be left desolate! Tearing my pictures from the walls, and ransacking every nook and corner, and packing up and carting away what's dearer to her than household gods, and all for filthy lucre's sake!
