As described in a film magazine, Clorinda Gildersleeve (Barrymore) has drifted into an affair with a married man, Leslie Palliser (Ellis). She goes to Europe to forget and meets Malcolm Grant (Davidson), a young surgeon, who falls in love with her. However, because of her affair with Palliser, she believes she has no right to accept his love. She hears an excellent sermon preached by Reverend Arthur Bainbridge (Gillmore) on the text "Woman, go and sin no more" and appeals to the minister in regards to Malcolm's attentions. She sends Malcolm to see the minister, but he does not disclose Clorinda's secret. The minister interests her in a home for erring girls and Clorinda adopts one of the inmates. Reverend Bainbridge urges her to marry Malcolm, but during the ceremony she falls in a faint. That night, however, she writes to the minister announcing her marriage to Malcolm and their departure for France, where he will do surgical work and she will become a nurse.
