M was a Miser, and hoarded up gold; N was a Nobleman, gallant and bold.

A noted miser boasted that he had lost five shillings without uttering a single complaint.

A spendthrift rallying a miser, among other things, said, "I'll warrant these buttons on your coat were your great-grandfather's."

A miser having heard of another still more parsimonious than himself, waited on him to gain instruction.

She shall see what it will cost her, the old miser; and you know I have always been most amiable with her.
