Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: A depiction of an 18th-century squire, ostensibly representing Roger Bacon's supposed 13th-century peasant father. "...for, sirrah, said he, have I any body else to leave my farm to but you? and yet you take upon you forsooth to be a scholar, and consequently a gentleman, for they profess themselves so; you live upon the fruit of other men's labour? Marry, go ye up Goodman-Two-Shoes, your Great Grandfather, Grandfather, and I, have thought it no scorn to dig and drive; and pray what are you better than us?" (p. 5) |
