The
Bowers
appeared
to
know
it
,
and
one
and
another
whispered
as
she
passed
,
"
Adorn
thyself
with
me
,
thou
beautiful
child
,
adorn
thyself
with
me
!
"
--
and
,
to
please
them
,
Pearl
gathered
the
violets
,
and
anemones
,
and
columbines
,
and
some
twigs
of
the
freshest
green
,
which
the
old
trees
held
down
before
her
eyes
.
With
these
she
decorated
her
hair
and
her
young
waist
,
and
became
a
nymph
child
,
or
an
infant
dryad
,
or
whatever
else
was
in
closest
sympathy
with
the
antique
wood
.
In
such
guise
had
Pearl
adorned
herself
,
when
she
heard
her
mother
's
voice
,
and
came
slowly
back
.
Slowly
--
for
she
saw
the
clergyman
!
"
Thou
will
love
her
dearly
,
"
repeated
Hester
Prynne
,
as
she
and
the
minister
sat
watching
little
Pearl
.
"
Dost
thou
not
think
her
beautiful
?
And
see
with
what
natural
skill
she
has
made
those
simple
flowers
adorn
her
!
Had
she
gathered
pearls
,
and
diamonds
,
and
rubies
in
the
wood
,
they
could
not
have
become
her
better
!
She
is
a
splendid
child
!
But
I
know
whose
brow
she
has
!
"
"
Dost
thou
know
,
Hester
,
"
said
Arthur
Dimmesdale
,
with
an
unquiet
smile
,
"
that
this
dear
child
,
tripping
about
always
at
thy
side
,
hath
caused
me
many
an
alarm
?
Methought
--
oh
,
Hester
,
what
a
thought
is
that
,
and
how
terrible
to
dread
it
!
--
that
my
own
features
were
partly
repeated
in
her
face
,
and
so
strikingly
that
the
world
might
see
them
!
But
she
is
mostly
thine
!
"
"
No
,
no
!
Not
mostly
!
"
answered
the
mother
,
with
a
tender
smile
.
"
A
little
longer
,
and
thou
needest
not
to
be
afraid
to
trace
whose
child
she
is
.
But
how
strangely
beautiful
she
looks
with
those
wild
flowers
in
her
hair
!
It
is
as
if
one
of
the
fairies
,
whom
we
left
in
dear
old
England
,
had
decked
her
out
to
meet
us
.
"
It
was
with
a
feeling
which
neither
of
them
had
ever
before
experienced
,
that
they
sat
and
watched
Pearl
's
slow
advance
.
In
her
was
visible
the
tie
that
united
them
.
She
had
been
offered
to
the
world
,
these
seven
past
years
,
as
the
living
hieroglyphic
,
in
which
was
revealed
the
secret
they
so
darkly
sought
to
hide
--
all
written
in
this
symbol
--
all
plainly
manifest
--
had
there
been
a
prophet
or
magician
skilled
to
read
the
character
of
flame
!
And
Pearl
was
the
oneness
of
their
being
.
Be
the
foregone
evil
what
it
might
,
how
could
they
doubt
that
their
earthly
lives
and
future
destinies
were
conjoined
when
they
beheld
at
once
the
material
union
,
and
the
spiritual
idea
,
in
whom
they
met
,
and
were
to
dwell
immortally
together
;
thoughts
like
these
--
and
perhaps
other
thoughts
,
which
they
did
not
acknowledge
or
define
--
threw
an
awe
about
the
child
as
she
came
onward
.
"
Let
her
see
nothing
strange
--
no
passion
or
eagerness
--
in
thy
way
of
accosting
her
,
"
whispered
Hester
.
"
Our
Pearl
is
a
fitful
and
fantastic
little
elf
sometimes
.
Especially
she
is
generally
intolerant
of
emotion
,
when
she
does
not
fully
comprehend
the
why
and
wherefore
.
But
the
child
hath
strong
affections
!
She
loves
me
,
and
will
love
thee
!
"
"
Thou
canst
not
think
,
"
said
the
minister
,
glancing
aside
at
Hester
Prynne
,
"
how
my
heart
dreads
this
interview
,
and
yearns
for
it
!
But
,
in
truth
,
as
I
already
told
thee
,
children
are
not
readily
won
to
be
familiar
with
me
.
They
will
not
climb
my
knee
,
nor
prattle
in
my
ear
,
nor
answer
to
my
smile
,
but
stand
apart
,
and
eye
me
strangely
.
Even
little
babes
,
when
I
take
them
in
my
arms
,
weep
bitterly
.
Yet
Pearl
,
twice
in
her
little
lifetime
,
hath
been
kind
to
me
!
The
first
time
--
thou
knowest
it
well
!
The
last
was
when
thou
ledst
her
with
thee
to
the
house
of
yonder
stern
old
Governor
.
"
"
And
thou
didst
plead
so
bravely
in
her
behalf
and
mine
!
"
answered
the
mother
.
"
I
remember
it
;
and
so
shall
little
Pearl
.
Fear
nothing
.
