The quote: "And who told you this story, Pearl?" asked her mother, recognizing a common superstition of the period. This quote struck me. It struck me, because it is apparent that there were many superstitions of that period. It is known that the Puritans had many Satan superstitions. They accused many people of witchcraft, and felons where thought to go to hell. (Pg. 193)
The quotes: "Hester," said he, "hast thou found peace?" She smiled drearily, looking down upon her bosom. "Hast thou?" she asked. These quotes struck me, because they have both been through so much misery. They check to see if they've found peace, and the are quite sad to say that they have not. They have a special bond between them. They both know what a hard burden it is to carry, but they can carry it together. (Pg. 199)
