I can't go searching right now

But you have a line about you've read too much history and not enough religion in one of your stories that I've read that when I read it sent shivers right down my spine and I said Yes, yes, that is a beautiful thing.

I shall search later, if I can achieve some kind of mental calm, but I wanted to answer this right away.

That's William in Paying Forfeits.

William looked pained. “Fear. Plain, simple fear. Fear of how beautiful you were as a youth. Fear of myself. Our relationship would have turned most improper very quickly. I read too much of the classics, you see, and not nearly enough of Alabama law or their Bible. You would have been my eromenos, my paidika. Joseph would have killed me for it, and then had me arrested for statutory rape.”
