In Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible," Elizabeth Proctor says this line to emphasize the importance of John Proctor's redemption and moral integrity. After a tumultuous journey through guilt and shame, he has finally embraced his goodness by refusing to falsely confess to witchcraft. Elizabeth recognizes that this newfound sense of honor is vital for his soul, and she fears that any attempt to coerce him into dishonesty would strip him of this hard-won virtue. This moment highlights themes of integrity, personal sacrifice, and the struggle for truth amidst societal pressures.
The relevant quote is: "He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!"Elizabeth views John's choice to die as his redemption from any of his wrongs.
She learns to be more forgiving. Elizabeth Proctor would not forgive her husband John Proctor for having an affair with Abigail Williams once she had heard about it, but toward the end of the play, when her husband is about to be hanged, she finally forgives him and shows how much she means it. "He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!"
"Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life! Because I lie and sign myself to lies! Because I am not worth the dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name? I have given you my soul; leave me my name!"(143).
Your heart sympathetically vibrates to God. The self reliance element is that you can trust your heart, as it is subordinate to God's goodness and directly in contact with his truth. Emerson was asserting this connection to the source of truth, the iron string, and the absolute nature of truth which subordinates all souls.
He confessed to committing adultery with Abigail. And when Abigail doesn't confess as well, they bring in Elizabeth. Elizabeth lies to the court to protect her husband. Proctor is accused as a liar, and he gets upset with how blind everyone is. Accusing them of witchcraft and hanging, etc. So he screams "God is Dead" thus making him guilty of witchcraft in their case.
