After being questioned by Parris of her intentions in the forest, Abigail rises in the name of God and confesses that she had done wrong in the past, but she now wants to make amends with God. In doing so, she utters names of people who she supposedly saw with the devil. Abigail’s friend follow her lead and create a hysteric scene where they expose many witches in the town. These disclosures lead to trials in the town to eliminate witches. Mary Warren describes how she knows Goody Sarah was a witch to the Proctors after Elizabeth expresses her surprise in hearing this new information: “ I never knew it before. I never knew anything before…I hear a voice, a screamin’ voice, and it were my voice—and all at once I remembered everything she done to me!” Elizabeth’s initial astonishment when she hears Mary Warren’s story reveals how this story was not anticipated or formerly addressed, creating a doubtful atmosphere. Mary Warren also seems to be alluding the witchery Goody Sarah performed on her as she claims to not have known anything before. Elizabeth
