разг., шутл.-ирон.meek (lamblike) creature; meek (pure) as a lamb- Намекая на то, что Кашкет подстрекает своего напарника на брак, вы этим самым как бы выгораживали Тиктора.

Беляев, Старая крепость) — 'When you hinted that Kashket is inciting his partner to turn out bad work, you seemed to be protecting Tiktor. What you seemed to be saying was, Kashket's spoiler and a slacker, but Tiktor's as pure as a lamb. That's not true, Comrade Flegontov!'
