How are the train in "A Journey" and the path in "Young Goodman Brown" alike? They both lead to the devil. They both lead to death. They both lead to the end of something. They both lead to a happier place.

OpenStudy (istim):

Hmmm. I haven't read this book/short story.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (istim):

Be it so if you will; but, alas! it was a dream of evil omen for young Goodman Brown. A stern, a sad, a darkly meditative, a distrustful, if not a desperate man did he become from the night of that fearful dream. On the Sabbath day, when the congregation were singing a holy psalm, he could not listen because an anthem of sin rushed loudly upon his ear and drowned all the blessed strain. When the minister spoke from the pulpit with power and fervid eloquence, and, with his hand on the open Bible, of the sacred truths of our religion, and of saint-like lives and triumphant deaths, and of future bliss or misery unutterable, then did Goodman Brown turn pale, dreading lest the roof should thunder down upon the gray blasphemer and his hearers. Often, waking suddenly at midnight, he shrank from the bosom of Faith; and at morning or eventide, when the family knelt down at prayer, he scowled and muttered to himself, and gazed sternly at his wife, and turned away. And when he had lived long, and was borne to his grave a hoary corpse, followed by Faith, an aged woman, and children and grandchildren, a goodly procession, besides neighbors not a few, they carved no hopeful verse upon his tombstone, for his dying hour was gloom.

That's a significance paragraph in Young Goodman Brown. From that, I can infer that two choices are the most likely. With the knowledge of the ending of "A Journey", we can figure this out.

OpenStudy (istim):

That's all I can give. Good Luck!
