The idle of all hobbledehoys
[hobbledehoys = gawky adolescent boy]
The ignoble exploitation of public interests
The imminent fatality awaiting him
The impulse of prejudice or caprice

The irony of circumstances
The jaded weariness of overstrained living
The jargon of well-handled and voice-worn phrases
The jostling and ugliness of life
The lawyer's habit of circumspection and delay
The long-delayed hour of retribution
The lowest grade of precarious mendacity
[mendacity = untruthfulness]
The makeshifts of mediocrity
The malarious air of after-dinner gossip
