The Merchant's Rain Murmurs and Rescue at Wary Forest
A soaked merchant on horseback carries a money valise as a robber fails to fire in wet weather. He escapes into a forest, reflecting that providence saved him from misfortune and reminding readers that harsh weather can avert danger. The piece shifts to moral reflections on charity, reform, and virtue inspired by heroic acts at sea and other anecdotes.
