Elizabeth Proctor, an honest woman, lies after Proctor has already confessed
Proctor screams at the end: “I say God is dead…I hear the boot of Lucifer, I see his filthy face. And it is my face, and yours, Danforth…”
Readers know the girls are faking it when Danforth and the courts believe their act
Finally, summarize the purpose of irony in this act of the play. Why did Miller include so much irony? Explain.
