I want to put my arms right round the world and never, never leave go.' 'My dear Buller!' said the surgeon. 'I told you you ought to be a poet once before.'"

What is Buller's Christian name?
    Leonidas Jeremiah Buller. "On the way home Elizabeth said, 'Do you know, I don't even know your Christian name?' 'I know, Liz, but you see-' 'What is it?' 'Leonidas Jeremiah Buller.' 'I shall call you Buller,' Elizabeth said emphatically."
