    My Dearest John‚ Once you lay eyes upon this letter‚ I have far departed from Salem. My returning of avoiding the chaos I have stirred upon Salem is yet unknown. May it merely be days‚ weeks‚ months or years before reappearing‚ my unfathomable adoration towards you will reside in my lone heart eternally. I do not beseech for a letter in return‚ as my decision to conceal my dwelling place will remain as it is. Please do not endeavor to locate me‚ as this is very reason I headed off without

    voyagers did not come to the island with good intentions. The Arawaks were naive peoples who like to share and believe in generosity. So‚ they exchanged everything they had only because they were impressed with the brightens of the glass and hanks.

Now John’s relationship seems to be passionate about arguing‚ trusting‚ a little judgmental (of self)‚ and regret. But similarly they have love in common. First up is Elizabeth’s relationship with John because it seems

John Proctors‚ entry into the story starts with his wife‚ Elizabeth Proctor‚ being accused of witchcraft by Abigail Williams‚

    God‚ for your luminous power and the sacred land below us‚ let my cousin Betty awaken from this troubled sleep. It’s been long since I have been able to enjoy her presence‚ and Mercy has even begun to suggest I beat her. Everything has taken a turn for the worse‚ and I’m trying to understand it all. When we girls went deep into the forest‚ we did so out of a joyous mood‚ our limbs solely wanting to be free from the confined rules. There was nothing troublesome there. Our beliefs are innocent at heart
