    A clerk ther was of Oxenford also

    The planter, who is Man sent out into the field to gather food, is seldom cheered by any idea of the true dignity of his ministry. He sees his bushel and his cart, and nothing beyond, and sinks into the farmer, instead of Man on the farm.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
