Literature

Slubber-Degullion A nasty, paltry fellow. A slub is a roll of wool drawn out and only slightly twisted; hence to slubber, to twist loosely, to do things by halves, to perform a work carelessly. Degullion is compounded of the word "gull," or the Cornish "gullan," a simpleton.
"Quoth she, `Although thou hast deserved,
Base slubber-degullion, to be served
As thou didst vow to deal with me."
Butler: Hudibras, i. 3. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
