The chapter opens with a discussion of a dog named "Hazel" and her owner, the "Meiji Shrine" . The dog's name is "Hazel of exeter" , meaning "the goddess of wisdom," and she is the daughter of a wealthy Japanese woman named "Hiroshima." The dog, however, is not a "dog," but rather "my" dog. She is the "good" dog of the meiji shrine, which is located outside of London. The chapter ends with a prayer for the departed "Aruna," "eleanor," "dad," "laura," and her family.
