The remaining twelve chapters act as a counterpoint, commenting on, if not reversing, the first part in which a morality play receives greater confirmation. Huck's journey down the Mississippi represents a rite passage, in which the character's personal notions of right and wrong come to constant conflict with his socially constructed conscience by the various people and Situations the protagonist encounters.
