Dafna1 [17]

It is a satire about an upper-class woman’s dressing room.  Women of higher classes tend to spend more time embellishing themselves than women of lower classes do. They care more about their physical appearance.

What were two reasons the Puritan colony began to disband or break up?
Nat2105 [25]

The two reasons why the Puritan colony began to disband or break up are:

  • They wanted to break away from the oppressive control of the bishops.
  • They felt that they were being persecuted for speaking up and criticising.

<h3>Puritan Colony</h3>

This refers to the group of people who were fed up with the Church of England and were constantly criticising them and their unorthodox ways and they eventually broke away and went to a new colony.

The main reason for them to break away was that they wanted to escape religious persecution and also to serve God the way they thought God should be worshipped.
