C – Christopher Tietjens


V – Valentine Wannop


C: Oh, don't believe that! I love every field and hedgerow. The land is England, and once it was the foundation 1 of order, before money took over and handed the country over to the swindlers and schemers. Toryism of the pig's trough.


V: Then what is your Toryism?


C: Duty. Duty and service to above and below. Frugality 2... Keeping your word, honouring 3 the past. Looking after your people and beggaring yourself if need be before letting duty go hang. If we'd stayed out of it, I'd have gone over to France to fight for France, for agriculture 4 against industrialism, for the 18th century against the 20th, if you like. Hoped you'd understand.


V: Oh, I understand you! You're as innocent 5 about yourself as a child. You would've thought all the same things in the 18th century.


C: Of course I would, and I would have been right! But you do make one collect one's thoughts.
