Answer:
in the story Maggie is called a precious burden. 'precious burden' is an oxymoron. here Maggie is considered a burden for she was bed ridden and was in need of constant looking after, however she is precious because she brought love and light to the Thompson household because by giving Mrs Thompson something to love and care for she enabled her to change her sour temper to a kind and compassionate one.
