As “unearthly horses” swiftly transport him to the bedside, the events quickly take on an eerie quality. The vile, fatal wound is discovered, but the doctor is preoccupied with personal distractions and grievances against the patients he is hired to treat. He is humiliated by the villagers, who “always expect the impossible from the doctor,” and he is doomed to lose everything on an endless return trip.
