What are the consequences of the sin on the person's life and character?
Hester's sin was adultery. She is forced to wear the scarlet letter A on her chest. Hester bears this sin with a humble patience. She loves Pearl, the result of the sin, and regards her communion with Dimmesdale as an act of love.
