原文
"Oh, I daresay we all pray for some things that we really don't want, if
we were only honest enough to look into our hearts," owned Aunt Jamesina
candidly. "I've a notion that such prayers don't rise very far. _I_ used
to pray that I might be enabled to forgive a certain person, but I know
now I really didn't want to forgive her. When I finally got that I DID
want to I forgave her without having to pray about it."
