Question

At the end of Dimmesdale’s climactic confession, Pearl finally gets her wish: “My litter Pearl,” said he feebly,… “dear little Pearl, wilt thou kiss me know? Thou wouldst not yonder, in the forest! But now thou wilt?” Pearl kissed his lips. A spell was broken. The great scene, of grief, in which the wild infant bore a part, had developed all her sympathies; and as her tears fell upon her father’s cheek, they were the pledge that she would grow up amid human joy and sorrow, nor for ever do battle with the word, but be a woman in it. Towards her mother, too, Pearl’s errand as a messenger of anguish was all fulfilled. What three questions are answered or problems solved in this scene? Explain.
