The quote: "Ay, ay, you must have known it; for he tells me he is of your part, and a close friend to the gentleman you spoke of,-he that is in peril from these sour old Puritan rulers!" This quote struck me. It struck me, because the sailor is oblivious to Roger's evil. Hester was aware of his evil, but because other's don't know his identity, they don't know his evil. Roger going with them on the ship would only increase the evil and misery set upon the Reverend. (Pg. 245)
The quote: "Mother," said she, "was that the same minister that kissed me by the brook?" This quote struck me, because Pearl is quite confused. She's quite confused, because the Reverend talks to them in secret, and ignores them in front of society. Pearl notices these things, and wants to know the meaning of it. I think that the Reverend should speak to them in public to show compassion. (Pg. 250)
