Act IReverend Hale
“Glory to God! It is broken, they are free!” (189)
At the end of act I when Abby and Betty start naming the names of “witches” in the town, Reverend Hale is relieved and overjoyed that the town has found a way to break Satan's grasp on the town. He thinks that Salem can now starting fighting Satan since there are girls to identify Satan’s helpers (the witches).
Dramatic Irony: This is an example of dramatic irony because the audience knows that the claims the girls are making at the end of the act are false. We know this because Abigail told John Proctor that there was no witchcraft. Reverend Hale has no knowledge of this information so he believes the girls’ exclamations are true. Therefore, the audience knows more about the events in the story than Reverend Hale.
