Answer:

Because he felt guilty and believed he deserved punishment.

Explanation:

John Proctor is one of the characters in "The Salem Witches". He was a full and honorable man, married and had children with Elizabeth. Together the couple hired Abigail to help Elizabeth with household chores, however, John and Abigail had a love affair when Elizabeth found out she fired Abigail from her job. Abigail, angry, denounced Elisabeth of practicing witchcraft and later denounced John of witchcraft as well.

John knew Abigail is lying, but only tried to defend his wife, he accepted the accusations against himself because he had committed a sin, been unfaithful to his wife and put them in that situation, so he believed he needed to pay for his mistakes.

Proctor hesitates to tell the court the truth, because this would hurt Abigail, expose her as a liar, and at this stage he still has feelings for her. He is also at war with himself when challenged by his wife Elizabeth to tell the court what Abigail told him earlier

Can someone revise my draft really well. Its a document, so just click on it. It will only work if you have word. Please help AS
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The first three points are what they (the cats) are related to, how they seem to act, and how they are throughout the story. These points will help explain the differences in the story. In "The Golden Cat" the cat is related to the sun, but in "The Cat and The Moon" the cat is being compared to the moon.

The cat in "the golden cat" acts like the sun because he watches over people. The cat in "the cat and the moon" does not seem to care as much about people, similar to how the moon feels to some people.The line "he makes the fields and meadows purr" in "the golden cat" describes the cat is wonderful. The cat in the "cat and the moon" is described as being scared. This can be seen in the lines "the pure cold light in the sky trouble his animal blood. Minnaloushe runs in the grass."

There are two more points on the differences. The cat in the "golden cat" acts domestic, but the other cats in the cat and the moon act absolutely different.
