"You won't lose Katerina Ivanovna, you may be sure, she'll come to you herself since she has run out," he added peevishly. "If she doesn't find you here, you'll be blamed for it...." Sonia sat down in painful suspense. Raskolnikov was silent, gazing at the floor and deliberating.

She must have understood it, yet she made up her mind to tell everything. Of course, all these nasty little suspicions as to the truth of her story only arose afterwards and at the first moment all were deeply impressed by it. As for the judges and the lawyers, they listened in reverent, almost shame-faced silence to Katerina Ivanovna.

Alyosha had been struck by Katerina Ivanovna’s beauty when, three weeks before, Dmitri had first brought him, at Katerina Ivanovna’s special request, to be introduced to her.

Her cough choked her but her reproaches were not without result. They evidently stood in some awe of Katerina Ivanovna.

Especially the mother's position," he went on, repeating almost word for word what every one in Petersburg was at that time saying about Kaminski.
