It’s interesting to see how the scare of witches gave so
much power to Abigail and a bunch of little girls. They have the power to say
anyone's a witch for any reason and people would believe them, like how Abigail
called Elizabeth a witch, and the same day Elizabeth was arrested. The thing
that irks me is the fact that they don't think about other explanations to what
might have happened, they just think everything has to do with witches. It’s
what they want to believe so they believe it no matter what kind of evidence is
presented to them. The people of Salem are just trying to find someone to put
the blame on and that's the devils and witches. If Abigail did swallow that pin
on purpose, which I think she did, proves that she will go to great lengths to
get back at Elizabeth. I wonder what was going on in Abigail’s head. It’s like
she thought that if Elizabeth was convict has a witch, then Elizabeth would be
out of the picture and then she could get with Proctor, which just proves even
more that she was delusional. I also find it funny how out of the entire
commandments Proctor forgets adultery right after he had been arguing with
Elizabeth about what happened with him and Abigail.
