Mary Warren tells Elizabeth and Proctor, “He sentenced her. He must. But not Sarah Good. For Sarah Good confessed, y’see” (Miller 28). The women that were willing to stand with their faith and keep their decency hung, which they believed was a better option than confessing to something they never did, only to live the rest of their lives hated under a watchful eye. Elizabeth Proctor is an astounding example of poise and integrity. In Act II she states, “John-I think I must go with them” (Miller 37). She is not going to put up a fight because she knows that it will only cause more trauma to herself, as well as her family. Elizabeth believes in her faith, so she will follow through with these beliefs and fight for all that she believes in. Elizabeth’s husband John also suffers with integrity as his wife is being taken when he says, “Peace. It is a providence, and no great change; we are only what we always were, but naked now” (Miller 38). Proctor knows that nobody in the town is innocent, including himself. He is willing to show who he is to save his wife and try to show the true light on the witchcraft
