Throughout them all, giving up her individuality, she would become ... the general symbol at which the preacher and moralist might point, and in which they might vivify and embody their images of woman's frailty and sinful passion. Thus the young and pure would be taught to look at her, with the scarlet letter flaming on her breast,鈥攁t her, the child of honorable parents,鈥攁t her, the mother of a babe, that would hereafter be a woman, 鈥攁t her, who had once been innocent, 鈥攁s the figure, the body, the reality of sin. And over her grave, the infamy thatshe must carry thither would be her only monument. (5.1)
