  • Cousin Pickle, — I hope you are in a better trim than your aunt, who hath been fast moored to her bed these seven weeks, by several feet of under-water lodging in her hold and hollop, whereby I doubt her planks are rotted, so that she cannot choose but fall to pieces in a short time.

  • What mischievous rhymes can I call up
    That wouldn't be utter codswallop?
    It's driving me dotty
    To find something naughty
    In a word that's as harmless as hollop.
