Solution

The correct option is C The thought-provoking words of the chaplain
Option D is the correct answer. The chaplain's words about his work and how there are always other people to carry on Harding's position makes him uncomfortable and unhappy, because he thinks of himself being replaceable in his old age. The reasons enumerated in options A,B and C are not the reasons for his unhappiness while exiting the Bishop's Palace, but his words were. Thus, options A,B and C are incorrect.
