作者引用Billy Williams讲的关于骑马以及和马主人的对话的笑话来说明代词的用法，真逗。

The amusing effect of disregarding the reference of pronouns is well illustrated by Burton in the following story of Billy Williams, a comic actor who thus narrates his experience in riding a horse owned by Hamblin, the manager:

  "So down I goes to the stable with Tom Flynn, and told the man to put the saddle on him."
  "On Tom Flynn?"
  "No, on the horse. So after talking with Tom Flynn awhile I mounted him."
  "What! mounted Tom Flynn?"
  "No, the horse; and then I shook hands with him and rode off."
  "Shook hands with the horse, Billy?"
  "No, with Tom Flynn; and then I rode off up the Bowery, and who should I meet but Tom Hamblin;
  so I got off and told the boy to hold him by the head."
  "What! hold Hamblin by the head?"
  "No, the horse; and then we went and had a drink together."
  "What! you and the horse?"
  "No, me and Hamblin; and after that I mounted him again and went out of town."
  "What! mounted Hamblin again?"
  "No, the horse; and when I got to Burnham, who should be there but Tom Flynn, he'd taken
  another horse and rode out ahead of me; so I told the hostler to tie him up."
  "Tie Tom Flynn up?"
  "No, the horse; and we had a drink there."
  "What! you and the horse?"
  "No, me and Tom Flynn."
