Explanation:

In "A Journey," a woman is travelling in a train with her ill husband. She is not happy in her marriage, but feels bound to him and believes she needs to remain by his side. However, during the journey, she learns something terrible about her husband. She learns that he died, but she is too afraid to let everyone know. In "Young Goodman Brown," Goodman Brown also learns something terrible about his wife Faith. He discovers that she is far from being the innocent saint he believed to have married.

Both of these stories make a commentary about marriage. Although the characters in the stories have some love for their partner and want their relationship to work out, they both struggle to do so because there is no trust between them and their partners. Because of this, the two characters are unable to feel happy in their marriages.
