mooncalf

In 1661, one of Dame Ursula's particular orders to Mooncalf was to froth the cans well.

Put it under your pillow and hug it, you great big mooncalf!

And tie 'em in any string, or do you take me for a mooncalf?

Once when I heard the word ‘mooncalf’ and asked what it meant, some one at home told me that mooncalves were deformed children.

Chopin, while not the whining mooncalf some have painted him, was never of truly virile character.
