Hungarian for bosom

. . . he found his host ensconced in a corner, looking like a lecherous Old Testament prophet in evening dress and decorations, drinking bull’s blood and trying to converse in what might have been a Balkan language with a buxom waitress in native costume.
    ‘You don’t know the Hungarian for bosom?’ he was saying. ‘Well, you ought to, of all people . . . here, I’ll show you — ah, there you are, Yankee, arriving inopportunely as usual.’


Mr American, p.517, Pan Books, paperback edition 1982.

Not exactly Eric Newby

      If you suppose, by the way, that I am unduly susceptible, you should read the recollections of J.A. St John, Esq., who travelled in Abyssinia in the 1840s and appears to have spent most of his time goggling at boobies, on which he was obviously an authority.

Heel!

…as I contemplated those enormous endowments fore and aft, and the massive shapely thigh thrust out of her peignoir, I came all over a-tremble, pointing like a gundog.

The half-Flashman

…she writhed against me for five delicious seconds, and as I changed my grip to the half-Flashman—one hand on her right tit, t’other clasping her left buttock, and stand back referee—she slipped smoothly from my embrace.

Mrs Flashman

      I turned to see what had astonished him, and understood. My dear wife, who is nothing, if not patient, was waiting on a couch by the dining-room door, fanning herself idly, and innocently ignoring the admiring glances of gentlemen, passing through. She was wearing something blue from Paris, as I recall, which left her mostly bare to the waist, and to impress the colonials she had decorated her upper works with the diamond necklace presented to her by the Grand Duke Alexis, a lecherous Russian lout of our acquaintance.

An indiscriminate rake

I’m not an indiscriminate rake, you see; I like to be interested in a woman in a way that is not merely carnal, to find out new fascinations in her with each encounter, those enchanting, mysterious, indefinable qualities, like the shape of her tits.

Had the wit

…this time I had the wit to seize a tit and buttock, fairly hooting with lust…

Clearly, not a leg man

There was strength in every line of her, too, for all her femininity – by George, I couldn’t remember when I’d seen bouncers like those, thrusting like pumpkins against the muslin of her blouse, which was open to the jeweled clasp at her breastbone – if it hadn’t been for a couple of discreetly embroidered flowers on either side, there would have been nothing at all to hide. I could only stand speechless before such queenly beauty, wondering what it would be like to tear the muslin aside, thrust your whikers in between ’em, and go brrrrr!

Like father, like son

But I had my doubts about the paternity of little Havvy – so called because his names were Harry Albert Victor, and he couldn’t say ‘Harry’ properly, generally because his mouth was full. My chum Speedicut, I remember, who is a coarse brute, claimed to see a conclusive resemblance to me: when Havvy was a few weeks old, and Speed came to the nursery to see him getting his rations, he said the way the infant went after the nurse’s tits proved beyond a doubt whose son he was.

As like as

In polite society

‘I shall go,’ says I, and started crawling for the flap. ‘But I may tell you,’ I added, ‘that in polite society it ain’t usual for gentlemen to squeeze ladies’ tits, whatever you have been told. And it ain’t usual, either for ladies to let gentlemen do it; it gives the gentlemen a wrong impression, you know. My apologies, again. Goodnight.’
