The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Lady Chatterley's Lover by D. H. Lawrence: And she saw his jaw set. Inwardly she exulted. 'I think I will have a
cup of tea now,' she said. He rose to make it. But his face was set. As
they sat at table she asked him:
'Why did you marry her? She was commoner than yourself. Mrs Bolton told
me about her. She could never understand why you married her.'
He looked at her fixedly.
'I'll tell you,' he said. 'The first girl I had, I began with when I
was sixteen. She was a school-master's daughter over at Ollerton,
pretty, beautiful really. I was supposed to be a clever sort of young
fellow from Sheffield Grammar School, with a bit of French and German,
very much up aloft. She was the romantic sort that hated commonness.
