B) Goodman Brown riding off into the wilderness
C
The pink ribbons in Faith's hair
D
The old man offering his staff to Goodman Brown

Answer 1

The old man's reference to King Philip's War

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is about "Young Goodman Brown", where we can see several symbols that add meaning to the story and extend the topics covered.

We can consider as a symbol, Goodman's trip to the desert (it shows that he will go through a moment of adversity and discomfort), the ribbons in Faith's hair (which signify innocence and faith) and the staff that the old man offers to Goodman (represents sin and man's inclination to sin).
