Imploring – to call upon in supplication

i found this definition at https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/imploring

I found this word in The story of an hour “Josephine was kneeling before the closed door with her lips to the keyhole, imploring for admission.”

The definition helps understand the sentence because imploring for admission is hard to understand if you don’t know it. So now know that it’s to call upon supplication then you’ll understand the feeling and reasoning behind why she is doing what she is doing. This can help the reader to know what she’s doing. At first you can get a feel of what it going on but overall I believe that the definition helps
