The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Forged Coupon by Leo Tolstoy: He remained motionless, staring at her. She
had grown so thin. Her eyes were larger, her
nose sharper, her hands worn and bony. He
neither knew what to do, nor what to say. He
forgot all his grief about his dishonour. He only
felt sorrow, infinite sorrow for her; sorrow for
her thinness, and for her miserable rough cloth-
ing; and most of all, for her pitiful face and im-
ploring eyes.
"Father--forgive," she said, moving towards
him.
