It begins attacca, following the “Promenade” at the same tempo as the opening (which is sometimes omitted in arrangements). Although there is no corresponding painting for this piece, it can be interpreted as depicting the conversations of women gathered in a market and the scene of people coming and going. It is characterized by a continuous sixteenth-note rhythm; in the orchestral version, this restlessness is expressed by rapidly shifting instruments to play the motif.

Continues attacca from <Promenade>. It is believed to be inspired by a painting depicting French women fiercely arguing in a market in Limoges, an old city in southwestern France. This piece, marked Allegretto vivo, sempre scherzando, is based on "f" (forte), and the frequently applied sforzandos convey the lively hustle and bustle of the market.
