"It may seem marvellous that, with the world before her--kept by no restrictive clause of her condemnation within the limits of the Puritan settlement, so remote and so obscure--free to return to her birth-place, or to any other European land, and there hide her character and identity under a new exterior, as completely as if emerging into another state of being"
It is quite grand that there is no restriction beyond the Puritan settlement that is so far away from civilization. She could start her life over as if she is a brand new person without any taint.
