All over London as one walks, one everywhere, in the season, sees oranges to sell; and they are in general sold tolerably cheap, one and even sometimes two for a halfpenny; or, in our money, threepence. ↗

You take stuff from different places, and sometimes you stick a line in because it rhymes, not because it makes sense. ↗

I've been pilloried so many times that I begin to expect it now. ↗
