I was finally able to tell Dimmesdale the truth. I told him about Chillingworth’s true identity. Dimmesdale was angry when I told him and he blamed me for his suffering. He was finally able to forgive me when he realized how evil Chillingworth was. We feared that Chillingworth will do something against us so we have decided to get onto a ship to Europe where we will live as a family. Dimmesdale was excited about leaving and being able to live together and I final took off the scarlet letter that was on my chest. It makes me very happy to know that Dimmesdale and Pearl will be able to treat each other like father and daughter. I called Pearl to come with Dimmesdale and I and she seemed a little upset because the A was not on my chest. Pearl was also being very indifferent with Dimmesdale. Dimmesdale gave Pearl a kiss on her forehead and Pearl ran off to wash off the kiss. I was excited to start fresh and finally be able to live with my daughter and the man that I love, but that all changed when I spoke to one of the sailors. He told me that Chillingworth would be joinng us on our passage because the ship needs a doctor. The whole town is excited about Election Day and hearing Dimmesdale’s sermon. I stood on the scaffold to listen to his sermon and I noticed that everyone was staring at me. Dimmesdale noticed Pearl and I on the scaffold on joined us. He then began to confess his sin to everyone “ye, that loved me!-ye, that have deemed me holy!- behold me here, the one sinner of the world! At last-at last!- I stand upon the spot where, seven years since, I should have stood, here, with this woman, whose arm, more than the little strength wherewith I have crept hitherward, sustains me at this dreadful moment, from groveling down upon my face! Lo, the scarlet letter which Hester waers! Ye have all shuddered at it! Wherever her walk hath been” (199-200). Dimmesdale even ripped his shirt off and revealed to everyone the mark that he made on himself. Pearl finally gave him the kiss that he had been waiting for. Dimmesdale and I excnaged some words, he said farewell and he passed away. I looked up advice on how to tell Pearl that her father had passed away. http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/health_advice/facts/death.htm
