Actually, I have a note in my book at line 149, page 144, where Mr. 
Kinbote describes "Mt. Glitterntin." To me it sounded like putting a 
name together in the manner of "Frenesi," which I pronounce "free 'n 
easy" but without too hard of a long "e" sound.
So hear we have either "Glitterin' tin" or 'Glitter 'n tin."
