"She set herself, therefore to gathering violets, and wood-anemones, and some scarlet columbines that she found growing in the crevices of a high rick."
These are all red flowers. Pearl is a symbol of the "A." And I think she subconsciously knows that it is a part of her. She is always dressed in red. She makes A's out of everything.
Why does Pearl make "A's" out of everything? Does this reinforce any larger ideas?
