This was an immense relief to the poor scribbler of poetry.

One may have good sense, though one is a poor scribbler.

Emptied his snuff-box into the poor scribbler's wine when he wasn't looking, as a joke.

I'm only a poor scribbler.

Hard would be the lot of a poor scribbler, if he may not have this privilege....

You remember that evening at Tivoli when your old tutor was quite severe on us poor scribblers?
