Why is Elizabeth upset about John's meeting with Abby at Parris's home? She is hysterical about her husband's lechery. She is paranoid her husband will be unfaithful again. She is vengeful and wants her husband to pay for his sins. She is guilty of lechery and wants to blame her husband to protect herself.

In Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible", John and Abigail meet alone at Parris's home. In the course of this encounter, Abigail - -who in the past has had sexual relations with John- - she claims that he still feels desire for her, but he denies this. Abigail wishes to put John on her side because she is being accused of witchcraft for having asked the slave Tituba to cast a death spell on John's wife Elizabeth; Abigail thinks that John will defend her before the judges in order to conceal the adultery. Upon learning of the meeting of John and Abigail, Elizabeth thinks that her husband John still feels affection for Abigail and she claims that John will never redeem himself as long as he lusts for Abigail.
