- "Bill slouched up to the tent and entered. When he beheld the magnificent proportions of Robert he said but little - 'Strike me pink!' were the only words the children could afterwards remember - but he produced fifteen shillings, mainly in sixpences and coppers, and handed it to Robert."
- "Why, strike me pink, I'd sooner drink / With a cove sent up for arson / Than a rain-beseeching, preaching, teaching, / Blanky, cranky parson."
