Edgar Allan Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death" In writing a story of this nature, Poe would have considered such historical examples as the Black Death or the bubonic plague of the Middle Ages as well as the cholera epidemics that ravaged Philadelphia in the 1790's and Baltimore in his own lifetime. However, "The Wife of His Youth" follows Mr. Ryder, a bi-racial man who was born and reared free before the Civil War. He heads the "Blue Veins Society", a social organization for colored people in a northern town; the membership consists of people with a high proportion of European ancestry, who look more white than black. The organization's name stemmed from the joke that one would have to be so white (to be a member) that veins could be seen through the skin.
What book is this from than I can help
Elizabeth isn't worried about her reputation, she's worried about John Proctor's reputation because she cares a lot about what happens to him.
Although you haven't shown it, we can see from the context of your question, that it refers to the play "The Crucible."
When we read this play, we have access to the following information:
- John and Elizabeth Proctor are a Puritan couple and they hire a housekeeper to help Elizabeth with the housework.
- This maid is named Abigail and she and John have an affair.
- When Elizabeth discovers this, she fires Abigail and agrees with John to try to rekindle the marriage.
- John is very remorseless and decides to cut off contact with Abigail.
- However, Abigail doesn't accept the way she was treated and as a way to get revenge on John, she decides to accuse Elizabeth of practicing witchcraft.
- This causes Elizabeth to be arrested and tried, which possibly will lead to her being sentenced to death.
- Elizabeth made John promise that he would never reveal the extramarital affair he had with Abigail, however, John ends up revealing this to the court in an attempt to save Elizabeth.
John was a very respected and admired man in Salem. Elizabeth knew that if he revealed the case of adultery, all his reputation would be gone. She cared a lot about her husband and would rather tarnish her reputation and be sentenced to death than risk John losing his reputation.
Importantly, "The Crucible" portrays the events that took place during the Salem Witch trials, showing the problems that this event of mass hysteria caused.

First thing i would do is check what treasures are inside. If there is gold i would go to a re seller of gold products and cash in the gold. I would save myself $100 US dollars. The rest of the money i would spend on food for the homeless people on the street and stray animals. I would also spend some money on a nice gift for my parents.
