This could include begging, earnestly requesting, or even getting down on one's knees in a display of desperate supplication.

Etymology of IMPLORE

The word "implore" originated from the Latin word "implorare", which can be broken down into "im-" (a prefix indicating intensification) and "plorare" (meaning "to weep" or "to cry out"). In Latin, "implorare" referred to earnestly begging or beseeching someone. Over time, this word made its way into Old French as "implorer", which eventually entered Middle English as "imploren". The meaning of the word evolved to convey a fervent request or entreaty rather than specifically weeping or crying out.
