Hawthorne uses dialogue in chapter 4 to help the reader better understand the personality traits of both chillingworth and hester prynne. For each character, select the two quotes that best display their personality traits. I read the original and translation of the text and still don't understand where he uses specific dialogue. The book is called the scarlet letter.

You'll find dialogue starting in the third paragraph.

“Prithee, friend, leave me alone with my patient,” said the practitioner. “Trust me, good jailer, you shall briefly have peace in your house; and, I promise you, Mistress Prynne shall hereafter be more amenable to just authority than you may have found her heretofore.” All of this ? how does this show personality traits ?
Do you mean you really can't tell anything about the jailer and the practitioner from this short passage? Maybe even about Mistress Prynne?

Go back and read more ... and more if you need to. Re-read if you must. It's there, if you're paying attention.
