Question

What rattrap was the peddler trapped?How did he come out of it?

Answer 1

$\bf{Chapter - The \ Rattrap}$

According to the peddler the $\underline{whole \ world \ was \ nothing \ but \ a}$$\underline {big \ rattrap}$ in which some of the baits are being provided so as to trap a person.

The peddler found himself also to be caught in the rattrap when he $\underline{stole \ money \ of \ the \ old \ crofter}$and was wandering in the confusing forest as being lost.

The peddler soon realised his mistake and decided to come out from the rattrap. He $\underline {gifted \ Edla}$, the daughter of ironmaster, the 30 kronors of the old crofter, a rattrap and a letter. This was for thanking Edla as she believed peddler and let him stay in her house on the Christmas eve.

The gift of the peddler showed $\underline{purification \ of \ soul \ through}$$\underline{confession}$. In this manner, the peddler came out from the rattrap.
