A fragmented passage blends scenes of a tropical storm with scientific reflections on seismic activity. It juxtaposes a Philippine setting with Earth’s elastic behavior, describing wind, rain, and chaos alongside discussions of planetary cohesion and the dynamic balance shaping our globe.
A tale describes Goudeau, a bohemian, eluding interior tax by parading a fake woolly sheep in protest. The tax gatherer confronts him, noting Goudeau as a shepherd despite poverty, and a plan to rectify finances leads to a surreal street promenade featuring a real sheep.

A nostalgic piece recounts Venice sinking into the Adriatic, Port Royal submerged since 1602, and Baiae fading beneath the Mediterranean. It notes bells tolling from sunken cathedrals, pirates and wealth, and ruins visible beneath ocean floors as storms stir the depths.
