Two sisters meet in order to be reconciled after 15 years.

Various ghosts lay between them and not least that of Rickie - husband of Madeleine and lover of Dinah.

And root up the infernal grove;
Then we shall return and see
The worlds of happy Eternity.
And throughout all Eternity
I forgive you, you forgive me"
