‘I'll tell Father Joseph how you came trying to blacken the name of a poor little innocent child.’ ‘I didn't do anything of the sort...’ ‘Now you've got the wind up, you're trying to eat your words. If you don't go away, I'll have the police on you.’ (J. Lindsay, ‘A Local Habitaion’, ch. 20) — - Я на вас отцу Джозефу пожалуюсь, расскажу, как вы шатаетесь по квартирам и пытаетесь очернить бедного, ни в чем не повинного ребенка. - Да у меня и в мыслях не было... - Ага, получили сдачи и теперь в кусты! Если вы сейчас же не уберетесь вон, я позову полицейского.
