Danforth's Monologue From The Crucible

I anxiously look around as I enter the courtroom, the benches are empty from left to right . All the judges have their eyes on me and it is not the kind of spotlight I want. Immediately, my eyes fall down to the ground as I walk with Mr. Proctor by my side. I am here today to confess that I saw no spirits o and that poppet was mine and not Goody Proctor’s. I am willingly to confess to help Mr. Proctor protect Goody Proctor from wrongful accusations of witchcraft. Moreover, I am terrified if I say something wrong I might get hanged today. As we walk towards Judge Danforth I seem to think he is fascinated by my presence.

She and the other girls quickly turned out because they follow her lead as well. How did I not see this coming I knew this would happen. I should have kept quiet. Abigail is seeking revenge at this moment she wants me to be hanged. Luckily Mr. Proctor saves me from my fear and he finally confesses that he committed adultery with Abigail.
