Entry 9


Entry 9
"At first, his expression had been calm, meditative, scholar-like. Now there was something ugly and evil in his face" (Hawthorne, Chapter 9).
This quote, in context, is talking about Chillingworth. From this, we can go along with Hawthorne's view on inward and outward appearance. Hawthorne is directly telling us that Chillingwoth has become dark and evil since his first appearance in the town. Ever since he has become friends with Dimmesdale, something has changed in Chillingworth.
