ufferings are to prove sin’s evil nature, make people realize it and avoid committing sins. So suffering is just a means by God to educate people. It means that God doesn’t give up anybody, even the sinner. God makes sinners suffer to impress them deeply and also warn others the blackness of sins. Therefore, the purpose of suffering is to save the sinners. “Blessed is the man whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal.”(Job 5:17-18)
Hester Prynne suffers not only because of mankinds original sin, but also, and more decided by her adultery with Dimmesdale. Adultery is an offense towards God so she must be punished severely. In fact, Hesters life is full of misery after the exposure of her crime. The first time Hester Prynne walks out of the prison with her baby, she is punished to be set in the market-place where stern-browed men and unkindly-visaged women and a crowd of eager and curious schoolboys may have a fair sight of her brave apparel. This kind of public exposure isnt considered sympathetic in local peoples eyes. Instead, it is a blessing on the rightous colony of the Massachusettes, where iniquity is dragged out into the sunshine!(P46) Although it is no great distance from the prison-door to the market-place, to Hester Prynne, a prisoner, it is reckoned a journey of some length. However haughty she is,she perchance underwent an agony from every footstep of those t英语论文网 【http://www.51lunwen.org】hat thronged to see her, as if her heart has been flung into the street for them all to spurn and trample upon.(P46)

She does her best to support herself under the heavy weight of a thousand relenting eyes, all fastened upon her, and concentrate upon her bosom. People dont insult her with terrible words, however, Hester feels much more suffocating in the solemn mood of the popular mind. She is so uneasy that she even wants to be insulted by venomous words rather than to bear all those rigid countenances. She can repay with a bitter and disdainful smile at the multitudes scornful laugh. But encountered with such leaden infliction, she feels that unless shrieking out with the full power of her lungs, and cast herself from the scanffold down upon the ground, or else go mad at once.(P48)
Although Hester Prynne tries to make the scarlet A as beautiful as an ornament and herself like a graceful grandeur dame, as one woman in the crowd describes:the pang of it will be always in her heart. (P44)If all the things make Hester feel humiliating, the recognition of her husband in the market-place aggravates her bad feeling and even frightens her severely. Then when she is sent back to the jail, she is exciting and cant control herself and even hurt her poor little babe. When the doctor---in fact Hesters real husband comes in, she immediately become as still as death. After their talk
