Rift In The Loot

[Bert45]

In a recent (!) episode of Dad's Army, "Getting the Bird", Frazer said there was a "rift in the loot" in Mrs Pike's household. I get what it means from the context, but I have been unable to find any meaning for 'loot' on the internet that helps understand it properly. I even looked in a dictionary!
Any Scots or Gaelic experts out there?

Not knowing what context it was used in but could it have been? http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1O214-riftwithinthelute.html

It's "Rift in the lute" from a poem by Tennyson

Thanks, both of you. The subtitles misled me by spelling the word 'loot'. It must have been a common expression when Tennyson used it, but I had never heard it.

[Fitzer]

Now that's bad if the subtitles have it wrong, it's not as if they're being done on the fly!

Bert I think it originates with Tennyson.
