Hawthorne supports the allegory that all humans have secret sin in “The Minister’s Black Veil”. In the story “Young Goodman Brown”, the allegory that everyone has secret sin and is a mix of good and evil is displayed when Brown finds the people of his village having a devil meeting in the forest. The two stories both address the allegory in different ways, in “The Minister’s Black Veil”, the allegory is displayed by a black veil that Mr. Hooper wears over his face to hide and acknowledge his sin, and in “Young Goodman Brown”, it is displayed in the people of the town who Brown thought were entirely good, going to a devil meeting. The allegory that all humans have some secret hidden sin is true in the world that we live in
