A. But I love how, instead, she glorified the letter with color and artistry, to make it truly symbolize the reality of what was between her and Arthur.

She had a sexual dating with Reverend Dimmesdale, which needless to say violated the social standards of Colonial Boston. it ought to look harmless in accordance to at present's society, yet returned then it replaced into an abomination.

Definetly A. Because if the were truely forgiving they wouldnt make her wear it at all it was meant to be disgraceful and shameful. And they werent letting her stay in town for her but more for them so they can point and say see what happens when your naughty. Also where was the ol' Revs letter??????
