Yorick and his new companion are interrupted by the same monk who approached Yorick earlier. Upon arriving at the shop, Monsieur Dessein realizes that he has the wrong key and then proceeds to search out the right one, letting Yorick wait at the door with a young and pretty lady of good breeding. Monsieur Dessein refuses to give Yorick the chaise, saying that it is not in good shape and that it would not withstand the journey instead, he offers to take Yorick to his Remise to look at other chaises. Yorick places himself in the last of these subsets. These travelers are themselves divided into Idle Travellers, Inquisitive Travellers, Lying Travellers, Proud Travellers, Vain Travellers, Splenetic Travellers, The Travellers of Necessity, The Delinquent and Felonious Traveller, The Unfortunate and Innocent Traveller, The Simple Traveller, and The Sentimental Traveler.

The last category of travelers is made up of the Simple Travelers. The third type consists of those who travel because they are forced to do so by their parents in order to obtain a better education and those who travel with the endorsement of the clergy. In the preface, Yorick describes the different types of travelers: the first two are those who travel for petty reasons - sickness or mental health. All this time, the monk has remained outside, on the premises of the inn. He climbs inside a chaise sitting in the courtyard to start writing his preface. Yorick decides that he will buy a chaise to make his journey faster, but when he gets outside, he does not see Monsieur Dessein, the master of the hotel. Yorick soon feels ashamed of his words and realizes that he had no right to criticize the monk. Instead, Yorick starts to criticize the monk by saying that hardship exists all over the world: this reality does not give someone the right to eat the bread earned by others. Yorick decides that he will not give the monk any money.

While he is eating, he is approached by a poor monk, who is asking for donations. Yorick, a British clergyman, decides to go to France and begins his journey with a jaunt from Dover to Calais, where he has supper after this short trip.
