記憶超人英語單詞妙記手冊(李峻)A-1:aback－－-ablution

Once upon a time, there was an abbess in a small abbey. She was very kind, but one day she was abetted by an abject abbot. He abducted her abed! After several months, her abdomen grew high, which abashed her very much and abased her to some degree. She abjured the abhorrent relationship. The abbot was taken aback and could not abide her abeyance. So she decided to abdicate. She gave a simple ablution and left the abbey with tears ablaze in her eyes. The pain in her heart abated. She abhorred her baby so much that she abandoned her in the abbey. That day when she left, she only brought with her a lovely abacus, which had the abbreviation of her name.
