Answer:

all this was told me for a great secret

Explanation:

Context clues are words or phrases that the author leaves in the text to help the reader discover the meaning of a word that may be unknown to the reader through the context of the text. Using this concept we can understand that the author thought that the word "indiscretion" was unknown, or brought a confusing meaning to the reader, so the author wished to use contextual clues to clarify that word and make the reading more fluid. The context clue the author used for the word "indiscretion" was the phrase "all this was told me for a great secret". Since the word "indiscretion" reveals that Emily was inconvenient in revealing something that was secret.
