Hello, teachers.
I am not quite sure what the last sentence means in the following passage:
"Find out where the nearest bathroom is, Parkins," he ordered, "and prepare it. I have quite forgotten my way about here."
(The Great Impersonation, chap. X)
This is a remark of a man who has just returned to his palatial mansion in England after spending more than ten years in Africa. Does the last sentence mean (1) "I have forgotten what is where in this house" or (2) "I have forgotten the habit that I followed before I left for Africa"?
I appreciate any suggestions. Thank you!! |
