"One may choose to forget, but one may not be able to accomplish it. To forget or to remember is not in one's own power." "For the agint, miss. Oh, if ye tell on me now they'll kill me. Maxil, ye know; me lord's agint." Mona tries to say something,—anything that will be kind and sympathetic,—but words fail her. Her lips part, but no sound escapes them.
