Lisa asks…in young goodman brother what is meant by a hoary corpse?please help!!!!!Anne answers:"Young Goodman Brown" is the name of the story, not 'brother.'
The word "hoary" means '1. Gray or white as if with or with great age 2. Extremely old'... (my 'hoary' dictionary)
and
The word "corpse" means '1. A human or animal body whether living or dead 2. (a) a dead body esp. Of a human being, and (b) the remains of something discarded or defunct'
(same dictionary)
