The Ordeal of Richard Feverel 17 - Good Wine and Good Blood
In which Sir Austin Feverel and his solicitor, Mr. Thompson, engage in a grave discourse upon the corruptions and moral decay besetting youth, symbolised by the discovery of a pernicious book and Sir Austin’s counsel to face vice openly rather than shun it.
