"But the visionary little maid, on her part, beckoned likewise, as if to say, -'This is a better place! Come though into the pool!'" (Page 147)
In this paragraph we see Pearl and her beauty reflected in the water. The water reflects her being, and as water represents nature it says that nature reflects her soul. When it says come here, does it mean that she should flee into a better world - into the nature, where she belongs to?
As a spirit? Think about other things water might represent?
