When William first sees Kit at Meeting, he is impressed and entranced by Kit. Kit is different from any of the girls in Wethersfield, and he is especially impressed by her manner of dress, as she is dressed in beautiful, opulent, and colorful clothes, unlike any of the modestly dressed townsfolk in Wethersfield.

When William first sees Kit at Meeting, he is impressed and entranced by Kit. Kit is different from any of the girls in Wethersfield, and he is especially impressed by her manner of dress, as she is dressed in beautiful, opulent, and colorful clothes, unlike any of the modestly dressed townsfolk in Wethersfield. Upon seeing her and falling instantly "in love," William asks permission to call on Kit.
However, when William calls on Saturday evenings Kit finds him boring and has trouble making conversation. William is content to sit quietly and look at her, but Kit is bored and annoyed that he is there most evenings. The only time that Kit shows any admiration for William is when he stands up to Matthew.
William, who is wealthy and of high social standing, takes it for granted that Kit will want to marry him and begins building a large house for them.
When Kit is accused of being a witch, she hopes that William will come to her rescue; however, he doesn't want any association with her that might damage his social status.
Once Kit is acquitted, William returns to call on Kit, but she no longer wants anything to do with him, knowing that she can't depend on him.
