"
Madman
,
hold
!
what
is
your
purpose
?
"
whispered
he
.
"
Wave
back
that
woman
!
Cast
off
this
child
All
shall
be
well
!
Do
not
blacken
your
fame
,
and
perish
in
dishonour
!
I
can
yet
save
you
!
Would
you
bring
infamy
on
your
sacred
profession
?
"
"
Ha
,
tempter
!
Methinks
thou
art
too
late
!
"
answered
the
minister
,
encountering
his
eye
,
fearfully
,
but
firmly
.
"
Thy
power
is
not
what
it
was
!
With
God
's
help
,
I
shall
escape
thee
now
!
"
He
again
extended
his
hand
to
the
woman
of
the
scarlet
letter
.
"
Hester
Prynne
,
"
cried
he
,
with
a
piercing
earnestness
,
"
in
the
name
of
Him
,
so
terrible
and
so
merciful
,
who
gives
me
grace
,
at
this
last
moment
,
to
do
what
--
for
my
own
heavy
sin
and
miserable
agony
--
I
withheld
myself
from
doing
seven
years
ago
,
come
hither
now
,
and
twine
thy
strength
about
me
!
Thy
strength
,
Hester
;
but
let
it
be
guided
by
the
will
which
God
hath
granted
me
!
This
wretched
and
wronged
old
man
is
opposing
it
with
all
his
might
!
--
with
all
his
own
might
,
and
the
fiend
's
!
Come
,
Hester
--
come
!
Support
me
up
yonder
scaffold
.
"
The
crowd
was
in
a
tumult
.
The
men
of
rank
and
dignity
,
who
stood
more
immediately
around
the
clergyman
,
were
so
taken
by
surprise
,
and
so
perplexed
as
to
the
purport
of
what
they
saw
--
unable
to
receive
the
explanation
which
most
readily
presented
itself
,
or
to
imagine
any
other
--
that
they
remained
silent
and
inactive
spectators
of
the
judgement
which
Providence
seemed
about
to
work
.
They
beheld
the
minister
,
leaning
on
Hester
's
shoulder
,
and
supported
by
her
arm
around
him
,
approach
the
scaffold
,
and
ascend
its
steps
;
while
still
the
little
hand
of
the
sin-born
child
was
clasped
in
his
.
Old
Roger
Chillingworth
followed
,
as
one
intimately
connected
with
the
drama
of
guilt
and
sorrow
in
which
they
had
all
been
actors
,
and
well
entitled
,
therefore
to
be
present
at
its
closing
scene
.
"
Hadst
thou
sought
the
whole
earth
over
,
"
said
he
looking
darkly
at
the
clergyman
,
"
there
was
no
one
place
so
secret
--
no
high
place
nor
lowly
place
,
where
thou
couldst
have
escaped
me
--
save
on
this
very
scaffold
!
"
"
Thanks
be
to
Him
who
hath
led
me
hither
!
"
answered
the
minister
.
Yet
he
trembled
,
and
turned
to
Hester
,
with
an
expression
of
doubt
and
anxiety
in
his
eyes
,
not
the
less
evidently
betrayed
,
that
there
was
a
feeble
smile
upon
his
lips
.
