Answer -
The Peddler believed in giving back to the world what he received from it. He was always treated with contempt and hostility and so he never did anything good. However, Edla’s kind and caring behavior finally changed him. She had treated him with love and respect befitting a captain when she knew that he was a poor vagabond. The trust that Edla showed in him made him change his ways and he decided to live with dignity and respect.
