Pap is a drunk and is careless.

Why is he a drunk, because he gets "drunk as a fiddler".

Why is he careless, because that does not sound very safe to "clumb out on to the porch-roof and slid down a stanchion". Also he sounds kind of dumb to sell a coat for forty-rod whisky to get drunk. "traded his new coat for a jug of forty-rod".

pantera1 [17]

Alliteration is the repeating same letter sound in the beginning of close words in a sentence.

The silky socks slipped on her feet easily.

When you say the sentence out loud, you notice that there are many same s sounds in the sentence, so this sentence is the clearest example of alliteration.

silky socks slipped are also adjacent words in the sentence, which further contributes to the clearest example of alliteration.

What does the idiom "a penny is a lot of money if you haven't got a penny" mean
Igoryamba
Everything is relative. If you're broke and someone hands you 20$, it will seem like a lot of money to you. However, if you hand the same amount of money (20$) to Bill Gates, it will seem like a small amount of money to him. A penny does not have a lot of intrinsic value, but to someone who has absolutely no money, it will seem like a lot (relatively speaking).
