Excerpt from The Monk, Vol. 2 of 2: A RomanceThe abbot started at the sound: he turned his eyes upon Matilda's, they were filled with tears, her cheeks were covered with blushes, and her supplicating looks seemed to solicit his compassion.Dangerous woman! Said he, into What an abyss of misery have you plunged me! Should your sex be discovered, my honour, nay, my life, must pay for the pleasure of a few moments. Fool that I was, to trust myself to your seductions! What can now be done? How can my offence be expiated? What atonement can purchase the pardon of my crime? Wretched Matilda, you have destroyed my quiet for ever!About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
