Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Humble Lover, Vol. 1 of 1 To the best of my knowledge, your business is mine and mine is yours, replied the young man drily, but with perfect good humour. In course, in course! But it needn't be so a day longer than you like William, I'm for ever a' dinnin' that into your ears. Lor, mother, how you do run on! There is a sight of difference between wishing to give a neighbour a dinner and tumin' you out of house and home as you call it. Everyone in his place, say I, and there's a sight of difference between such as us and gentlefolks, even if they haven't a shoe to their foot. Come, mother, they're not so poverty-stricken at old Rouse's as all that, neither. You needn't flare up like the gobbler when put out. It's no more of a disgrace for a book-learned man like the parson to be poor as a church mouse than for you to be a clodhopper only just able to write your name. Those Sharply uttered antitheses made the young man wince. His face, less ruddy than that of his class generally, flushed as under downright affront; gingerly he handled knife and steel-pronged fork, for him the excellent fare having evidently little savour.
