How do you read Dimmesdale's speech on the scaffold on Election Day to the assembled multitudes, especially the paragraphs culminating with "behold me here, the one sinner of the world!" $($See quotation below$)?$ At that moment, and on this final day of his life, how are Hester and Pearl figuring into his thinking? How, if at all, have his relationships to sin$,$ God, and community changed? Is Dimmesdale's character arc the same as Hester's? Do they learn the same or different lessons? Provide textual support with MLA documentation. Response needs to be at least one full paragraph and no more than two.

Quote: "People of New England!" cried he$,$ with a voice that rose over them, high, solemn, and majestic, $..."$ye that have loved me$!-$ye$,$ that have deemed me holy!behold me here, the one sinner of the world! At last!$-$at last!$-$I stand upon the spot where, seven years since, I should have stood; here, with this woman." $($Chapter $23)$
