Read these lines from the excerpt again: There was a rustling of dresses, and the standing congregation sat down. The boy
whose history this book relates did not enjoy the prayer, he only endured it-if he
even did that much. He was restive all through it; he kept tally of the details of the
prayer, unconsciously-for he was not listening, but he knew the ground of old, and
the clergyman's regular route over it-and when a little trifle of new matter was
interlarded, his ear detected it and his whole nature resented it; he considered
additions unfair, and scoundrelly.

Answer and Explanation:

According to the text above, we can characterize the minister as a repetitive man who rarely makes changes in the way he conducts services and religious events. We can see this when the narrator of the story states that he already knew all the route and fundamentals used by the minister and that he did not like it when the minister decided to impose a change and talk about a new subject. This is because changes were not of the minister's character, but he must have realized that the people, as well as the narrator, could be getting along with his repetitive concepts.
