"At the great judgement day!"
Dimmesdale is obviously not ready to show himself to the public as Pearl's father and Hester's husband. He has this strange fear of being found out by the public which is odd because usually the first thing that you'd want to do if held to a religion is confess your sin but he does just the opposite. Could it be that he's not only trying to hide his sin from society but also god?
While Dimmesdale does give Pearl an exact date as to when they can announce their family, it's a little vague and harsh. I say harsh because it would be god announcing their sins and sending them down to Beelzebub as one big happy family. Pearl may be spared.
