vii is BLOODY BUCHAN AGANE! viz David Crawfurd in Prester John
viii is from Under Milk Wood, but I can't find a link with the precise bit (that isn't just other people playing this game!)

Mrs Dai Bread One and Mrs Dai Bread Two are sitting outside their house in Donkey Lane, one darkly one plumplblooming in the quick, dewy sun. Mrs Dai Bread Two is looking into a crystal ball which she holds in the lap of her dirty yellow petticoat, hard against her hard dark thighs.
MRS DAI BREAD TWO
Cross my palm with silver. Out of our housekeeping money. Aah!
MRS DAI BREAD ONE
What d'you see, lovie?
MRS DAI BREAD TWO
I see a featherbed. With three pillows on it. And a text above the bed. I can't read what it says, there's great clouds blowing. Now they have blown away. God is Love, the text says.
MRS DAI BREAD ONE (Delighted)
That's our bed.
MRS DAI BREAD TWO
And now it's vanished. The sun's spinning like a top. Who's this coming out of the sun? It's a hairy little man with big pink lips. He got a wall eye.
MRS DAI BREAD ONE
It's Dai, it's Dai Bread!
MRS DAI BREAD TWO
Ssh! The featherbed's floating back. The little man's taking his boots off. He's pulling his shirt over his head. He's beating his chest with his fists. He's climbing into bed.
MRS DAI BREAD ONE
Go on, go on.
MRS DAI BREAD TWO
There's two women in bed. He looks at them both, with his head cocked on one side. He's whistling through his teeth. Now he grips his little arms round one of the women.
MRS DAI BREAD ONE
Which one, which one?
MRS DAI BREAD TWO
I can't see any more. There's great clouds blowing again.
MRS DAI BREAD ONE
Ach, the mean old clouds!
