In the Merriam-Webster dictionary, metaphysical is defined as relating to the transcendent or to a reality beyond what is perceptible to the senses. Throughout The Scarlet Letter I believe there are many metaphysical references. Metaphysical references happen throughout the story and occur most frequently with situations that involve Pearl. I think that Pearl, even though she is a human being, through her actions is sort of the metaphysical element in story. She is often involve in a lot of the motifs that the author tries to present to the reader like the chasing sunshine situation for example. To conclude, metaphysical happenings is a significant theme in this book. As we come closer to finishing the book during class I will be trying see how significant it is.

This post is better than that previous one because it has one very specific piece of evidence. You need to make a solid habit out of that kind of thing. Grammar is reasonable, but you still have a few mistakes that you seem to make consistently. We will address those.
