HW for 11/6

1. "Abby I may think of you from time to time. But I will cut off my hand before I'll ever reach for you again. Wipe it out of your mind. We never touched."
"Aye, but we did."

Explanation- This quote seems to be important because it talks about the past relationship between Proctor and Abigail. Abigail wants Proctor to come back to her, but he denies ever having a relationship with her. So that he can protect the marriage with his wife. This may be a key reason of why Abby hates Proctor's wife.

Is that the only reason why Proctor ended the relationship or could there be more?

2. "There are many others who stay away from church these days because you hardly ever mention God any more."

Explanation-This quote is important because it is saying that because one person isn't preaching about God people have stopped going to church. And that this failure to mention God might bring about more evil. Therefore more people will be accusing others of being witches.

"Could one man's decision not to mention God, really affect this town whose sole purpose is religion?
