'' shouted Norman . `` No -- I thought you were a gentleman , '' said Faith faintly , and certainly without any thought of being sarcastic . Norman bounced up . `` Mind your own business . I do n't want to hear another word from you . If you was n't such a kid I 'd teach you to interfere in what does n't concern you . When I want parsons or pill-dosers I 'll send for them . Till I do I 'll have no truck with them . Do you understand ? Now , get out , cheese-face . '' Faith got out . She stumbled blindly down the steps , out of the yard gate and into the lane . Half way up the lane her daze of fear passed away and a reaction of tingling anger possessed her . By the time she reached the end of the lane she was in such a furious temper as she had never experienced before . Norman Douglas ' insults burned in her soul , kindling a scorching flame . Go home ! Not she !
