“Ever dreading to detect some dark and wild peculiarity, that should correspond with the guiltiness to which she owed her being.” (PG 80)
When Pearl was born Hester automatically looked for impurities and looked for anything God could have made wrong with her, and then realized he didn’t. Since there was nothing wrong with pearl what god saying that there is nothing wrong with what Hester did. God is saying that since Hester followed her heart and followed love, he was willing to reward her with a perfectly normal and pure baby.
