DJ 13 sin & punishment

Graveyard and jail at the very beginning. Punishment could be a prison sentence or being hung. Also Hester has a punishment of wearing an A.  Sin is seen many times in this novel one instances is Hester's adultrey. But also Roger wanting revenge is a sin. Roger doesnt want Hester to die but to be revengeful and kill her slowly differnent ways. Is there one of every sin in the book. Pearl is a devil child but looks like a angel. Will pearl sin or be perfect angel?

  1. "Is there one of every sin in the book"? You mean the seven deadly sins?

    Pearl has no sin. This is one reason she is pearl-like. Roger doesn't want to kill Hester. He really is only after the father.
