Read the sentence from "A Witch Trial at Mount Holly."

English
1 answer:
serious [3.7K]3 years ago
8 0

The phrase that gives the sentence a humorous laughing voice is;

  • Particularly Pins

In the passage, "A Witch Trial at Mount Holly," Benjamin Franklin describes a practice in his time when men and women will be accused of being witches.

They are subjected to several tests and the test in this passage was them being weighed against a Bible. It was believed that the weight of the Bible will supersede those of the witches and so, they will be thrown off.

Franklin describes these events in a comical manner to describe the folly of what they were doing.

When he said that they searched themselves to see if something of weight will be found among them, especially pins he was mocking them because pins are not known to be weighty.

Proctor knows that abigail Williams is a fraud. What conflicts cause him to hesitate about revealing this knowledge?
Grace [21]
I adore The Crucible, and I'm actually excited to find a question about it here (I'm sad, I know). One of the only plays that has made me cry!

Abigail Williams and John Proctor have engaged in an affair prior to this. Proctor evidently still has feelings for Abigail, despite everything, and thus has some hesitation towards revealing her as a liar and a fraud. Him revealing such things would also lead to the exposing of their affair, thus exposing his own wickedness. Equally, although he engaged in adultery, Proctor still sees himself as a Christian man. To implicate the seemingly young and innocent Abigail in such business would taint this, both for himself and in the eyes of the court and community. His place in the community is all he's got left, really, and encompasses most of his identity.
