Ben's h's became more Lubricous with his rising indignation.
"The Doctor A Tale Of The Rockies"
Ralph Connor
The hunger of the Trust for the Dollar, its adoration of the Dollar, its lust after the Dollar, its ecstasy in the mere thought of the Dollar-there has been nothing like it in the world in any age or country, nothing so coarse, nothing so Lubricous, nothing so bestial, except a French novel's attitude towards adultery.
"The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg and Other Stories"
Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens) Last Updated: February 18, 2009
Just As Irma Leese departed, in the room A sullen maid revengeful for the fact She was discharged, was leaving in a day, Entered and saw the letters, read a little, And gathered them, went to her room and packed Her telescope and left, went to LeRoy, And gave a letter to this one and that, Until the servant maids and carpenters And some Lubricous fellows at LeRoy Who made companions of these serving maids, Had each a letter of the dead Corinne, Which showed at last, after some twenty years, Of silence and oblivion, to LeRoy With memory to refresh, that poor Corinne Had given her love, herself, had been betrayed, Abandoned by a scoundrel.
