“His mother’s loll, the lollpoop, lolloped.”
Let’s dissect:
LOLL: Mother’s loll; a favourite child, the mother’s darling,
LOLLPOOP: A lazy, idle drone…
TO LOLLOP: To lean with one’s elbows on a table.
-all from the 1811 Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue by Francis Grose

I have always had a great fondness for things that looked like books but weren’t books. In fact, I have a fondness for things that look like things they are not overall. I am remembering beautiful porcelain bowls that looked like lettuce leaves and porcelain cups that looked like solo cups…that’s another post. This one is all about the books. Amazingly, I only have one of these.
