Answer:
The women of Boston felt disgusted and were angry about the crime of adultery committed by Hester Prynne.
Explanation:
In Chapter 2 of Scarlet Letter, when the crime of Hester Prynne was out, she was punished by the Puritanical Society for it. She wore an embroidered letter A (adultery).
Hester Prynne was convicted of the crime of adultery. Many women in the crowd, who were waiting outside the prison, were scorning Hester and gossiping that she should have been given much stricter punishment. Some church women thought only if they had a chance to handle the case of Hester, she would have been punished more severely.
"I’ll tell ye a piece of my mind. It would be greatly for the public behoof, if we women, being of mature age and church-members in good repute, should have the handling of such malefactresses as this Hester Prynne." (Quoted Text).
Some said that the letter should not be embroidered on her chest but on her forehead to shame her for life.
The ugliest woman of the crowd even suggested death punishment for Hester.
"This woman has brought shame upon us all, and ought to die. Is there not law for it?" (Quoted Text).
