I have been enchanted by the Regency period and everything to do with those times. That includes reading Persuasion by
Jane Austen at least thirty times. Pride
and Prejudice is a close second, followed by Jane Eyre by
Charlotte Bronte. What makes these books so fascinating and wonderful?
For me, it has been the quick wit, elegance of speech, and the ascertaining of character
among one's acquaintances.
People are categorized as either someone they would recommend or someone they would not wish to renew further acquaintance with.
But then sadly not only character is judged but social status as relates to one's income. Never associate with someone whose income is not equivalent or above your own. Society missed out on meeting interesting people due to prejudice of social status. Some people still do that today.
Our worth has nothing to do with money and property but everything to do with that our creator is God Himself.

Isaiah 40: 9b-10
Say to the cities of Judah, “Here is your God!” See, the Lord God
comes with strength, and his power establishes his rule. His wages are with
him, and his reward accompanies him.
