In this section scrooge encounters the second of the three spirits as foretold to him by Jacob Marley. The spirit comes in the shape of a giant. The spirit of Christmas Present. The spirit takes scrooge to his employee Bob's house on Christmas Day where they watch the celebration from an invisible vantage point. They travel all across the country to different houses and celebrations. They end the night at Scrooge's nephews house. Throughout the course of their travels Scrooge is reminded of the joy and gratitude the season can bring to family and friends alike and regrets his condemnation of the poor to poor houses and work houses without a thought to their person, family or well being.
