muckworm

  1. Any wormlike insect larva that lives and grows in manure.
  2. A miser

“This was, methinks too high a compliment to pass upon Nabal, to call him the man that liveth. David knew better things, that in God’s favour is life, not in the world’s smiles; and by the rough answer he was well enough served, for this too smooth address to such a muck-worm. –Matthew Henry on 1 Samuel 25
