'Tom Cummins was in the chair, said the man with the brown coat. 'It was half-past four when I got to Somers Town, and then I was so uncommon lushy, that I couldn't find the place where the latch-key went in, and was obliged to knock up the old 'ooman. I say, I wonder what old Fogg 'ud say, if he knew it. I should get the sack, I s'pose eh?
"And when we'd mushed up the blanky caboodlum: spiked the guns; sent the gunners to glory; and blow'd up the battery, who led the boys out?" He stopped dead. "Old Lush! Lushy, the Gunner, Gorblessim!" swelling his chest, and patting it. "And why? because there wasn't a quarter-deck officer, not so much as a middy or mate, left to do it."

Every week he wrote lushy "poetry" for the journal, about his newest conquest.
Spangles, as lushy a cove as ever was seen; ar'n't you, old boy? added he, grasping the latter by the arm. All these gentlemen severally bobbed their heads as Sir Harry called them over, and then resumed their respective occupations eating, drinking, and smoking. These were some of the debauched gentlemen Mr. Sponge had seen before Nonsuch House in the morning.

LUSHY, to be tipsy, and LUSH, are attributed for their origin to the name of Lushington, a once well-known London brewer, but when we find Losho and Loshano in a Gipsy dialect, meaning jolly, from such a Sanskrit root as Lush; as Paspati derives it, there seems to be some ground for supposing the words to be purely Rommany.
