LUKÉRYA goes out. If not, then I'll leave. ARKHÍP. As they please, that's not our business! Enter TATYÁNA and LUKÉRYA. KRASNÓV, TATYÁNA, LUKÉRYA, ARKHÍP, and AFÓNYA TATYÁNA. Did you call me? KRASNÓV. Yes, because the kitchen is no fit place for you to sit in. ARKHÍP. I have spoken to him, Tatyána; now do as you like yourself. TATYÁNA. Lev Rodionych!

KRASNÓV. If you were always so kind, you could fairly twist me round your finger. You can do anything with me by kindness, Tatyána Danílovna. But don't think ill of me. Why were you so jealous? Whatever is dear to one he guards. Why, you're dearer to me than everything in the world! What a wife you are! Who else has such a one? You're the envy of the whole city don't I see that?

TATYÁNA. That's my business, not yours. LUKÉRYA brings in the samovar. TATYÁNA. I guess some of his relatives; what a horrid nuisance! AFÓNYA. Nuisance! Why did you ever intrude into our family? Enter KRASNÓV, KÚRITSYN, ULYÁNA. KRASNÓV, TATYÁNA, LUKÉRYA, AFÓNYA, KÚRITSYN, and ULYÁNA. TATYÁNA. How affectionate! KRASNÓV. Never mind. We have a perfect right to! Let me treat you.

I'm talking for your own good. Even if she takes a fancy to a man she won't let anybody guess it. She'll so fool her husband that he'll just dote on her. But without wit one is lost. LUKÉRYA comes in leading ARKHÍP. ARKHÍP. Do you need me? What do you want me for? Tatyána, are you here? TATYÁNA. Yes, grandfather. ARKHÍP. Lukérya is leading me, and she says: "Grandfather Arkhíp, we need you!"

He realised in an instant that he was irrevocably, senselessly, in love with her. "But Tatyana, Tatyana, my guardian, Tatyana, Tatyana!" he repeated, while Irina's shape, as he had seen her last, rose before his eyes with a radiant calm of victory on her marble-white face. Next day he told her of his love.

KRASNÓV. I don't understand the reason for this argument! The whole affair isn't worth discussing. We probably won't ever see him again, and we have no need of him; he went with what he came. We have to live our life together; it isn't worth our having trouble over him. TATYÁNA. Ah, Lusha, what a disgrace! I wonder what he'll think of us now? LUKÉRYA. Yes. He'll soon go back to St.

The same day he begged Tatyana Borissovna's permission for an interview with her alone. They shut themselves up together. In half-an-hour they called Andryusha Andryusha went in. Mr. Benevolensky was standing at the window with a slight flush on his face and a beaming expression. Tatyana Borissovna was sitting in a corner wiping her eyes.

They were free-and-easy, perhaps, partly also because Varvarushka, who under the old masters had wielded great power and had kept watch over the morals of the clerks, had now no authority whatever in the house; and perhaps because many of them still remembered the time when Auntie Tatyana Ivanovna, whose brothers kept a strict hand over her, had been dressed like a simple peasant woman like Agafya, and when Anna Akimovna used to run about the yard near the factory buildings and every one used to call her Anyutya.

KRASNÓV. Now I can understand you. There were times when I didn't know just how to approach you whether you'd be pleased or not! TATYÁNA. You always please me. AFÓNYA. Come, Grandfather Arkhíp, let's go out on the street! ARKHÍP. As you wish; come on! Now, thank God, we again have peace and love. It's good when there's agreement in the house! KRASNÓV and TATYÁNA

My sister Tatyana wrote: For the personality of Christ he entertained a passionate and tender affection, as if for a near and familiar friend whom he loved with all the strength of his soul. Often during heated arguments Nikolai Nikolayevitch would take the Gospel, which he always carried about with him, from his pocket, and read out some passage from it appropriate to the subject in hand.
