Hester before relates to her child to being brought to her from God.

(Chapter 9,113) west3330l https://padlet.com/chrisse4/xit7l5dbyytsh9vp/wish/1088613390 This quote describes how Chillingworth abandons his previous identity and adopts a new one. He does not want to be publicly recognized as Hester’s husband and is content to live a mysterious life in Boston. The only thing that matters to him is finding out the identity of Hester’s lover, and then tormenting whoever that man is.

This also shows significance to everyday life because when something happens in our towns there is an excitement among the people. For example, if Silverdale obtained a n In & Out Burger the people in Silverdale who love In & Out would be excited and there would be so much joy just like what is happening in this quote. ]]> 2021-01-15 09:49:29 UTC https://padlet.com/chrisse4/xit7l5dbyytsh9vp/wish/1090518629 "After a time, at a hint from Roger Chillingworth, the friends of Mr. Dimmesdale effected an arrangement by which the two were lodged in the same house; so that every ebb and flow of the minister's life-tide might pass under eye of his anxious and attached physician" (pg. 118) brannan7852d https://padlet.com/chrisse4/xit7l5dbyytsh9vp/wish/1091984037 This is significant because it shows that perhaps the health of Dimmesdale is more of an obsession of Chillingworth than would be deemed normal, and might even have a more important role in the story later.]]> 2021-01-15 16:55:05 UTC https://padlet.com/chrisse4/xit7l5dbyytsh9vp/wish/1091984037 "I could be well content that my labors, and my sorrows, and my sins, and my pains, should shortly end with me, and what is earthly of them be buried in my grave, and the spiritual go with me to my eternal state, rather than that you should put your skill to the proof on my behalf."

The walls were hung round with tapestry, said to be from the Gobelin looms, and at all events, representing the Scriptural story of David and Bathsheba..." (ch 9 pg 116 para 1) Basically the author is making a reference to an old verse in the bible talking about david and bathsheba. Bathsheba had a husband and david killed him so that he could be adulturous with bathsheba. Rev. Dimmesdale is the one who impregnated Hester. So the room probably constantly torments the reverand because hes reminded of the sin he commited. ]]> 2021-01-15 23:50:13 UTC https://padlet.com/chrisse4/xit7l5dbyytsh9vp/wish/1093221561 "As not only the disease interested the physician, but he was strongly moved to look into the character and qualities of the patient, these two men, so different in age, came gradually to spend much time together.

I think this applies to life because sometimes you mess up and you never forgiven for the mistake you've made. People are not forgiving most of the time and neither is the world but Hester eventually learns to forgive herself in a way so she can move on even if the towns folk haven't. Meaning its important to forgive yourself for your mistake even if others haven't. ]]> 2021-01-22 19:46:11 UTC https://padlet.com/chrisse4/xit7l5dbyytsh9vp/wish/1115660681 Page 117, Paragraph 2 schultz5163c https://padlet.com/chrisse4/xit7l5dbyytsh9vp/wish/1119616685 "...the Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale, like many other personages of especial sanctity, in all ages of the Christian world, was haunted by either Satan himself, or Satan's emissary, in the guise of old Roger Chillingworth."
