Grand folks live here and the squire’s wake up call
A poem of two lovers who view wealth and status with defiant pride then contrast it with a gray final verdict: social distinctions fade beside enduring love and the promise of a life together. The narrative then shifts to a prose tale of Squire Hall, a model farmer, whose wife Mrs Hall endures his petty grumbling until she asserts her rights and reforms their household economics. Through her courage, his stinginess and pride are tempered as he learns to value her labor and leadership.
