Tag 11 - "failing health" page 96
A. In this Chapter I found out that Chillingworth is a docter. Minister Dimsdale falls into very poor health and Chliilingworth helps him get better.
B I think it is quite funny that chillingworth is helping to heal the man he so longs to kill, he still wants to know who got his wife pregnant but instead of telling him Hester leaves him in the cold.
Tag 12 "Roommates"
A.In this chapter what happens is Dimsdale is still regaining his strength so he moves in with Chillingworth. While they are living together they start to become very bonded like brothers.
B.Still after all this time Chillinworth doesnt know it was Dimsdale, they live under the same roof spend alot of time together, its gonna be juicy when the truth comes out.
Tag 13
" The freedom of a broken law"
A.This is about how hester is free from the puritans because she no longer is one of them she feels like a huge burdon is lifted from trying to conform to the puritan law
B. I know what it is like to fell free from trying to be somthing that your not, that time when you decide to just be you, that is the time when your true colors shine through.
Tag 14- "a ghastly rapture" PG 109
What happens in this chapter is Chillingworth finds out its Dimsdale and he is happy about it, i think, it was hard to understand.
B. I had a really hard time understanding this chapter because of the rapid mood swings, but i can't help, but wonder why was he happy?

Tag #11-Failing Health
A.Dimmesdale is getting sicker and sicker and wants Chillingworth to move in with him to diagnose his sickness.
B.Dimmesdale is sick because of the guilty conscience he is feeling.
Tag #12-Roomates
A. Chillingworth and Dimmesdale move in with other so Dimmesdale can get better. They become really close after a while of seep conversations.
B.I think this is very ironic because Dimmesdale is the father of Pearl and Chillingworth wants revenge on the father who he is getting really close to.
Tag #13-"...the freedom of a broken law"
A. This quote is about Hester and Pearl's attitude of the law. They have the freedom even when they break laws. But there is one law she can’t be free of Adultery.
B. This is a perfect quote describing the attitude of Hester and Pearl. They think that they are too bad for the law enforcement.
Tag #14 "a ghastly rapture."
A. Chillingworth enters Dimmesdale's room and sees something on his chest and goes crazy about it. He starts to through his hand up and dance.
B.I don’t know what this object on his chest is but it is very important.
