This week's MUG will be about integrating quotations.

Today we worked on indirect quoting (paraphrasing).

MUG #8

Tituba:  I don't compact with no devil!
Parris: You will confess yourself or I will take you out and whip you to your death, Tituba!
Putnam: This woman must be hanged! She must be taken and hanged!
Tituba, terrified, falls to her knees: No, no, don't hang Tituba! I tell him I don't desire to work for him, sir.

Paraphrased:

Although Tituba initially denies involvement with the devil, after being threatened by both Parris and Putnam, she relents, confessing to witchcraft to save her life (1055).
