Still in the basis of Dimmesdale's home Chillingsworth is devoting his time
to finding out what ails his patient. Chillingsworth keeps questioning Dimmesdale
about his past probing for some secret that will shed a little light
on Dimmesdale's sickness. While Dimmesdale is away Chillingsworth would look for
herbs to use for homeopathic medications to try and cure him. One time
Dimmesdale questions what a blackened herb is that Chillingsworth uses and
Chillingsworth replies that he found it in a graveyard and it symbolizes the
buried sin of the deceased. Dimmesdale then looks out the window as he hears
Pearl throwing flowers at her mothers scarlet letter outside. Pearl notices both
men and grabs her mother stating that the black man already has Dimmesdale and
he wont get them too.
