Seedcake and Shingles

Quaker’s-seedcake and cobbler, and the Castor-oil for whooping and shingles; yellow-linoleum scuffed through to tacking; and me in the corner with rickets, colic and lyme, me fader's bootprints wet with muck and scoff.

I like the way you use long pieces and short pieces. 'Muck and scoff' is so beautifully onomatopoeic.
