Minister’s Black Veil” from beginning to end. In fact, the parson’s final words emphasize this fact: “I look around me, and, lo! on every visage a Black Veil!'' But is guilt the main theme?

Pinch can’t afford mustard when he gets to town on Mondays to escape: ‘stuffed-cheesy-meat-green-bean-bake-loaf’. And presented with the choice, a nude hotdog is always the better option in Pinch’s opinion. “Two raw dogs, Mack”, Pinch spurted in an unusually nervous tone. “You got it, P”, returned the vendor.

In Nathaniel Hawthorne’s parable the “Minister’s Black Veil” his theme of the story is that nobody can escape a sin. An analysis on the surface of the story is one day Mr. Hooper minister of a congregation in Milford, MA, a small settlement of puritans, working hard just to sustain life.
