A passage in the dialogue between Lizabeth's parents that help convey their characters is
- the scene where her father lamented for not having bought his wife a gift for twenty-two years.
The scene is a very touching one that elicits feelings of pity and grief for the poor condition of the family.
The man laments about not having bought anything for his wife for the past twenty-two years. He is sad and sobs like a child for the deep poverty they found themselves in.
The scene is heartbreaking for it communicates the helplessness of the man in a relatable way.
Even when his wife tries to comfort him by promising a used coat from Mr. Ellis, the man feels more embittered because they have to use the leftovers of the whites.
These emotions are believable for no one likes poverty or having to live at the mercy of others.
