Why Do the Heathen Rage and the People Imagine a Vain Thing
A long fragment discusses a London suburb wholesale firm with two traveling salesmen. The single man learns he earns 10 shillings less weekly than the married man despite selling more goods. The boss promises to right the pay, but the bookkeeper ends up crediting the same amount, and the senior partner reveals the tactic by cutting the other's pay. The piece shifts to reflections on why questions arise in life, citing E. A. Hale and poetic lines about why.
