- The Dangler; dangler [BKG Note: p.157, SJ quotes the first line of the poem, perhaps from memory. See poem text below. The OED gives the first use of dangler, n., as 1728 in Fieldings Love in Several Masques, but it is indicated in the play that it was a common expression. A more explicit definition than Johnson's is in the Bailey 1736 Dict.]
