Crucible Act 2

The true colors test was a test that we took in health when we were freshmen.  I remember I picked orange because all the other guys picked orange and I did not want to look stupid being different.  So when we took the test the other day I was not surprised to see that my color had changed.  I went from being orange to gold, and after reading and hearing what gold was, I knew that was where I belonged.  We gold, tend to be the organizers (My True Colors).  We keep everything going on track and provide a schedule for what needs to happen.  We also tend to have a little bid of the obsessive compulsive disorder, and that is truely where I fit under.  There are three other colors besides gold, there is green, blue, and orange, like I said earlier.  The green people tend to be the ones that know they are right.  They like to look at the facts of everything, and from that they get their knowledge.  Then there is the blue people, who tend to be the compassionate type of people.  They do not like when people get into arguments, and they want everybody to get along.  They also like to give hugs (just saying).  The last color is orange.  They tend to be the people that just go get the task done.  They are not shy and Caleb Harney is a perfect example of this color (My True Colors).  He fits the bill perfectly for the group of orange.
The first character that I am showing their colors is Abigail.  Abigail is a little confusing on which color is her dominate, but the two colors that I believe she possesses are blue and orange.  She is definitely orange because of when she was dancing, in the woods, the dancing was associated with witch craft, but she keeps on denying that it had nothing to do with witch craft.  "We did dance, uncle, and when you leaped out of the bush so suddenly, Betty was frightened and then she fainted.  And there's the whole of it." (Miller 10). Just like what you (Mr. Langley) said about Caleb.  They know that they are not right, but they argue with the other person for a long time period that they end up just giving up and that is how they win.  The other color associated with Abigail is blue.  I think blue is a love color.  Marry is head over heels for John Proctor. (Miller 150).  She loves him even though she is not loved back.
Mary Warren is a blue.  The one thing that I remember about when we were discussing the description of the characters is that blues wanted to make everything right.  They did not want to have any arguments or any enemies.  Mary did that in court, when Elizabeth was said to be doing witch craft.  Mary quickly jumped in and stopped all of that discussion, because she did not want Elizabeth mad at her, and because she knew that Elizabeth had nothing to do with witch craft.
