The sentence from Mark Twain's "The Adventures from Tom Sawyer" (1876) that shows the storm as a symbol of Tom's conscience in chapter 22 is "He believed he had taxed the forbearance of the powers above to the extremity of endurance and that this was the result."

Tom Sawyer has a guilty conscience because he had witnessed the murder of Dr. Robinson, he was tempted by chewing tobacco and profanitythough he had tried to give them up; and a revival had come to won, so religion was everywhere. All these factors contribute to accentuate his guilty conscience and when the storm strikes, he thinks that it is a divine punishment for his deeds.

The part where it talks about Tom believing the storm hit to insinuate that God’s wrath was directed at him, is where we see that the storm represents Tom’s conscience. Hope this helps.

What is the thesis statement for a windstorm in the forest

goldenfox [79]

A Windstorm in the Forest begins by depicting the wind as a maternal figure. As if tending to children, “the winds go to every tree, fingering every leaf and branch and furrowed bole … [seeking] and [finding] them all, caressing them tenderly, bending them in lusty exercise, stimulating their growth, plucking off a leaf or limb as required” (55). The trees resemble infants who are reliant on their mothers to make them strong, living symbiotically with the wind; the trees eventually reap cool shade, clean oxygen and protection for the soil below in return for the winds’ breezes.
