>Please, cousin, for-give my brother dearest. Famine hath rendered him squirrelly. Preluding to your approach I had been purloining his precious rations—further irritating his disposition. He means no derision as he only has the greatest respect for the esteem and wealth you have found yourself, and considers you a great entrepreneur of handsome philanthropy. Please grant him this magnanimity and do not hold him in such sour scorn.
>And of course I implore our good neighbors—all of whom my brother has been a friend and peer of—to remember the great and humble generosity of my brother in days past! None here would call that arrogance so please, cousin, do not debase my brother with such oinks for a moment of prideful weakness... I will accept your delicious oats on his behalf.
