The Crucible’s Abigal and Mary Warren

Abigail bloody shame Warren In this essay I will explore the characters of both bloody shame and Abigail. These two seem to be at bottom the same circle of friends however have to complete different personalities. However with wizard being a leader and the other a follower they match perfectly. In the last scenes towards the end of the play we hook on to see a stronger side towards Mary Warren. She enters the act with intentions of speaking the truth of what happened, to tell the court that they both lied ab push through seeing the devil.However eventually she stops coming across as strong object and starts to show her real timid side who doesnt like to be left out or seen as an outcast. Whereas Abigails character is shown to be very strong minded and conniving she always strives for what she wants. In one of the scenes we see Abigail trying to seduce ex flame Proctor, during this it is clear to see that proctor is indeed finding this hard to keep away however he does manage to stick to No and not retaliating.In the court we see another side to her, where she is fighting for her life and doesnt care who she takes down with her, this is shown by calling out to a big yellow bird as referring to it as Mary, and telling us that this bird wants to land her face. Abigail is portrayed to be a leader, she has her group of friends who look up to her and rely on her. This is shown twice throughout the play, the first time is when the girls go to meet her at the beside if Betty and after hearing of witchcraft in township a couple of the girls immediately go to Abby asking for help/advise on what they should say.On the other hand, Mary Warren is portrayed as a follower. This shows that she is a weak minded person. She always needs person there to push her or to defend her. This is shown at it strongest when at the last scene in the court, Mary leave the house with proctor with intentions of telling the courts the truth and to talk slightly how they all lied abo ut dancing with spirits etc however it is then reversed when Abigail turns all the other irls against Mary and trying to work the judges believe that there is a big huge yellow bird that Mary has direct to deface her, after about 2-3 minutes of this the girls catch on and also start to join in with mimicking Mary and making the people of the court believe that Mary has sent her soul out to astonish them. At this point Mary is petrified and doesnt know what it is that she is to do. In the end she ends up following Abigail and the girls and puts all the infernal on proctor, blaming him for bringing her here, and saying that he too has made a pact with the devil.
