The image of a little maid…race with her (PG 147)
Pearl sees herself in the water, not merely just as a reflection but as a part of nature. Now that they are in the forest and Hester and her are going to become disconnected things are changing. The further Hester gets from Pearl, the closer Pearl gets to Nature and becoming one with it.
Is there a possibility that Pearl could disappear into nature?
