"Well, sir, the young ones must have a nickname for anything beyond them; and because he never takes any notice of them so different from your handsome Master Frank and some simility of his black horse, or his proud walk, to the pictur', 'Pollyon' is the name they give him, out of Pilgrim's Progress.
I'd serve him just like that there 'Pollyon in the book. Or else I'd put rat p'ison in his beer, and my! wouldn't it be a game to see the tet'nus a-comin' on 'im, and " "Be quiet," said Reginald; "I won't allow you to talk like that. It's as bad as the Tim Tigerskin days, Love, and we've both done with them." "You're right there!" said the boy, pulling his Pilgrim's Progress from his pocket.
Pollyon hath got a heap of guineas on his table; wouldn't go into the big yellow pudding-basin! And sure enough he had, your Honour, in piles, as if he was telling of them. He had slipped out suddenly, and thought the passage door was bolted. What a comfort it was to me, I can't configurate. Because I could eat my dinner comfortable now, for such a big heap of money never I did see."
