why did the peddler keep to the woods after leaving the crofters cottage?how did he feel?
After stealing the money from the crofter?s, the peddler was cautious to. avoid the public, highway lest he be identified and caught. He got into the woods but finally realised that it was a big and confusing forest. The end of the forest was nowhere in sight and he felt lost. That?s when he recalled his thoughts about the world being a rattrap and he realised that he had indeed become a victim of a rattrap.
