The drops can be considered a type of poison or blessing in Rowena's life, as they were placed by an unknown individual and caused her death.
Although you haven't shown the story this question refers to, we can say from the context of the question that it refers to "Ligeia" written by Edgar Alan Poe.
About "Ligeia" we can say that:
- This is a short story that shows a narrator in love with Ligeia, a beautiful and intelligent woman.
- The narrator, however, marries Rowena, a woman he does not love and does not intend to love.
- Ligeia dies throughout the story, which leaves the narrator extremely depressed and violent.
- Rowena is very afraid of him and lives miserable, trapped in a loveless marriage. This deteriorates her health very badly.
- When Rowena is agonizing in her bed, a mysterious and invisible individual drops red drops into the glass that Rowena goes to have a drink from.
- These drops cause Rowena's death.
- In this case, the drops can be seen as a poison, which took Rowena's life, or as a blessing, as it brought peace to her soul.
- The mysterious individual can be interpreted as the spirit of Ligeia, who wished to free Rowena from her suffering, or as the narrator who caused Rowena's death as a way of getting rid of her presence.
Based on this, we can see that Poe wanted to convey a very strong message through the short story. This message showed that love is such a strong and overwhelming feeling that it can create terrible and frightening situations.

Answer:
Foreshadowing is the literary technique used in the line by Elizabeth Proctor.
The scene that took place for the loose devil in Salem is the case of the witch hunt that took over the town of Salem.
This connects to the theme of hysteria in that the trial brought everyone to an excitement that no one can seem to ignore or be able to refrain from.
Explanation:
The literary technique that Arthur Miller used in his "The Crucible" is foreshadowing. It allows a certain 'hint' to the readers about what was to come in the near future. This is aptly seen in the line spoken by Elizabeth Proctor<em> "The town's gone wild".</em>
The event that took place over the course of the act is that of the witch-hunt. Abigail and other young girls were caught in the forest, dancing and <em>"trafficking"</em> with the devil. But for this, Elizabeth Proctor was wrongly accused of the same witch-craft, and condemned to be hanged. The subsequent community turmoil that this issue brought into the town of Salem is what Elizabeth was referring to the loose devil in Salem.
Hysteria is the super excitement of people about a certain issue, feeling anxious and full of uncontrollable emotions. This is similar to the Salem witch hunt for it creates a sense of excitement in the whole community to see and know about the case. The very case brought everyone on their toes, be it young and old, all seem interested and affected by the trial.
