The Crucible

Double Entry Journal

Act I Part I

Quote-
"The Crucible"  (Pg. 1233)

Response-
From this title I can predict that it will be about something of some sort of religion.  The word “crucible” sounds like the word  “cruz”, which is the Spanish word for cross.  Usually, a cross is a symbol in many religions. 


Act II 

Quote

"It is a mouse... of the court." (Pg 1269)

Response 
Mary Warren's progression in the story has shown.  She is no longer the servant who took over for Abby.  She is an important character to the plot because she now knows what Abigail is capable of even though Abigial's Uncle Parris does not know. I believe that further in the story Mary Warren will tell on Abby but she will hesitate to do so.
