Sir Roger and the widow summary
Answers
Explanation:
In the essay Of the Club, Steele has given a brief description of the members of the club. Describing Sir Roger he says that the knight had been a dandy in his youth but had changed his ways; had become very sober and somewhat careless about dress after he had been thwarted in his love for a widow. In one of the later essays, His Account of his Disappointment in Love, we have the description of his first meeting with the widow. He was in his twenty-third year, young and proud of the handsome appearance he cut. He saw the widow first in the court over which he presides in his capacity of country magistrate. The case being tried was related to the widow's inheritance.
Richard Steele wrote 'Sir Roger and Widow'. It is the story of a perfect man, who belonged to a rich and respectable family. Sir Roger was a baronet. His grandfather invented the famous country-dance.
