Young Goodman Brown Q&A

1. I think that hawthorne's purpose for writing this story is how having a religion helps, but also losing faith can be easy.
2. After reading this story I believe that brown's wife is named 'faith' just at the fact faith goes along with this story, and the way they describe his wife sounds just about right that her name would be faith.
3. The pink ribbons represents the wife, beacuse every time brown's wife is mentioned pink ribbons would appear.
4. In the story everything that brown went threw was only a dream, it was a bad dream a evil dream. In the story it mentioned " Had Goodman brown fallen asleep in the forest, and only dreamed of a witch meeting? Be it so, if you will. But alas! it was a dream of evil omen for young Goodman brown"
5. I also believe that the old man is the devil. In the story the make it seem like the devil is a normal person but he is not.
6. In the story the staff represents the demon.
7. I feel like his life would be different beacuse he would not have to experience scary places like this, and if he would've stayed home he would have not lost his faith.
