Tituba's confession then causes a series of questions to be asked of her which cause her to accuse other people in Salem Town, such as Goody Good. After Tituba starts accusing so does Abigail and Betty [after the girl miraculously wakes up]. After the girls all start sceaming out names, Act I draws to a close.
With Tituba's confession, the whole trials begin. If Tituba hadn't confessed, it more than likely would have ended with her and the trials would not have even taken place. But, if she wouldn't have confessed there wouldn't have really even been a play.

In Act IV of "The Crucible", John decides to rip up his signed confession for two reasons. First, after the confession is signed, Danforth tells one of his court marshals to hang it on the church door so that john can be used as an example to the people who refuse to confess to witchcraft. Once John realizes this he decides that John Proctor will not be used as an example of someone who lies to save his life and, therefore, takes his confession back. The second reason is that John realizes that signing this confession will ruin his name for his three sons. His reasoning is, "Because it is my name." He takes back the confession for those two reasons.

One example of a cliffhanger in The Crucible is when John Proctor confesses to committing adultery with Abigail Williams in an effort to save his wife, Elizabeth. The audience is left wondering what the outcome of this confession will be and how it will affect the characters and the unfolding events in the play.

There is no alliteration used in the crucible.
The council is prepared to initiate our latest initiate. "Initiate sequence!", shouted the Mission Commander.
One example of personification in The Crucible is in Act 1 when Reverend Parris says that his "ministry's at stake." This gives human qualities to the abstract concept of his ministry being in danger. Another example is in Act 3 when John Proctor is told to "confess" and he replies, "Is there any ship to take me?" This implies that confession is a tangible object that can physically transport him.
A crucible is a vessel in which metal is melted.
