Atkinson, "do this colonel and his lady live, as it is called, well together?" "If you mean to ask," cries Amelia, "whether they are a very fond couple, I must answer that I believe they are not." "I have been told," says Mrs. Atkinson, "that there have been instances of women who have become bawds to their own husbands, and the husbands pimps for them." "Fie upon it!" cries Amelia.
No doubt it wants money for the war when so much is lavished upon the pimps, panders, and harlots of the Court!" The Governor rose suddenly, striking the table with his scabbard to stop Rigaud in his rash and dangerous speech. "Not a word more of comment, Chevalier Rigaud!" said he, with a sharp imperative tone that cut short debate; "not another word!
IX. He is protecting the interests of his buffoons and gamesters and pimps. He is protecting Capho's and Sasu's interests too, pugnacious and muscular centurions, whom he placed among his troops of male and female buffoons. Besides all this, he demands "that the decrees of himself and his colleague concerning Caesar's writings and memoranda are to stand."
Happening to see at the opera a very handsome young woman in the boxes, he despatched one of his aides-de-camp to reconnoitre the ground, and to find out who she was. All gentlemen attached to his person or household are also his pimps, and are no novices in forming or executing plans of seduction.
The king and his court were surrounded by pimps, panders, courtesans, and flatterers. The example of the court spread throughout the country religion became a jest and laughing-stock; and those who were not to be cajoled out of their soul's eternal happiness whose vital godliness preserved them in the midst of such evil examples and allurements, were persecuted with unrelenting rigour.
Sylviana heard the words -stark and depressing enough -but what gave them their power were the images her own memory provided. She saw it all: the rooster-like pimps grabbing gaudily dressed women by the hair, and without remorse throwing them into the back seats of still gaudier cars, for later punishment, which no doubt included beating and rape.
A quiet man could not walk the highways without being elbowed into the kennel by swaggering swashbucklers, or accosted by painted hussies. Padders and michers, laced cloaks, jingling spurs, slashed boots, tall plumes, bullies and pimps, oaths and blasphemies I promise you hell was waxing fat. Even in the solitude of one's coach one was not free from the robber. 'How that, sir? asked Reuben.

Have I not seen them thirty deep of a morning when I have held my levee, cringing up to my bedside 'Your bedside! I exclaimed.
I doubt you are mistaken in that, Sir, for 'twas I was the Spark that writ the proper Stuff To do you service. Char. Thou! Scar. Ay, we that spend our Lives and Fortunes here to serve you, to be us'd like Pimps and Scoundrels. Come, Sir, satisfy him who 'twas was hid i'th' Closet, when he came in and found you. Cin. Ha, is't possible? Was it Charmante? Char. Was it you, Cinthio?
Only the fences, profiteers, confidence men, defrauders, swindlers, most of the bankrupts and some of the pimps, remained indifferent. In the course of the year, Kuno Kohn had made friends particularly with the youthful burglar Benjamin. The two often sat for hours together. If the guards looked the other way... Benjamin spoke enthusiastically to the humpback. Of sun. And freedom.
