Initially unsure whether it's an ox or a man, he approaches and realizes it is a naked, motionless man, evoking a sense of terror and curiosity. The shoemaker grapples with the fear of getting involved, suspecting foul play. This encounter sets the stage for a gripping exploration of themes like fear, morality, and the consequences of inaction. The atmosphere of suspense and the shoemaker's internal conflict drive the narrative forward.
