Not worth the candle Pg 197 (meaning it was worthlessto argue with the Walrus)

This phrase relates to occupations, games etc. that werethought so lacking in merit that it wasn't worth the

expense of a candle to create enough light to partake inthem. Candles were as significant a drain on householdexpenses as is the electricity bill today. There are severalphrases in English that express regret at having wasted

valuable candlelight.
