One example of personification in The Crucible is in Act 1 when Reverend Parris says that his "ministry's at stake." This gives human qualities to the abstract concept of his ministry being in danger. Another example is in Act 3 when John Proctor is told to "confess" and he replies, "Is there any ship to take me?" This implies that confession is a tangible object that can physically transport him.
