"Then, and there, before the judgment seat, thy mother, and thou, and I, must stand together. But the daylight of this world shall not see our meeting!"(Hawthorne, 150). 

This quote from Dimmesdale is basically stating that when they are judged by God that everything will be known. But, until then, they can hide their secrets from the light of day. ]]> 2017-11-08 04:12:20 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_114433/k8mg6wr0m71k/wish/204668117 amanda_114433 https://padlet.com/amanda_114433/k8mg6wr0m71k/wish/204669738 "With a convulsive motion, he tore away the ministerial band from before his breast. It was revealed!"(Hawthorne, 250)

The exposure marks his confession and he admits his feelings for Hester and Pearl. Bringing this to the light of day results in his death.

On the scaffold, it was a place of judgment and exposure. The town wanted her to confess her baby's fathers name. This was an example of the day symbol due to her having to stand up on the platform with her baby wearing the scarlet letter 'a', totally exposed to everyone. ]]> 2017-11-08 04:55:31 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_114433/k8mg6wr0m71k/wish/204673427 amanda_114433 https://padlet.com/amanda_114433/k8mg6wr0m71k/wish/204673850 On page 250, Hawthorne discusses that Dimmesdale had found his way to the scaffold to reveal his secret.
