There are 66 occurances of "timbers", not including those references to
the construction of a boat, but only for shivering.

Be aware that each line is totally unrelated to any other neighboring
lines. Each is taken individually out of context.

Not sure what all this proves, but Nancy definitely had this as a
strongly recognizable aspect of her personality.
