Did you read in the paper about the theft at Basoff's house? Do you understand? You won't have time to hide anything, we will not let you . . . and this very night . . . do you understand?" "Why, Aristid Fomich?" sobbed the discomfited merchant. "No more words! Did you understand or not?"
"Don't count your chickens before they are hatched . . . my friend," said Aristid Fomich. The Doctor, a young man with eye-glasses, looked at him curiously, the Coroner with an attention that boded him no good, Petunikoff with triumph, while the Inspector could hardly restrain himself from throwing himself upon him. The dark figure of Martyanoff appeared at the door of the dosshouse.
You owe me sixty-five roubles. That is not much, eh?" "Oh! my Lord! Aristid Fomich! I have always been attentive to your honor and done my best to please you. "Drop all that, Egorka, grandchild of Judas!" "All right! I will give it you . . . only God will punish you for this. . . ." "Silence! You rotten pimple of the earth!" shouted the Captain, rolling his eyes.
This youngster had long hair and a weak face, with prominent cheek-bones and a turned-up nose. He was dressed in a blue blouse without a waistband, and on his head he wore the remains of a straw hat, while his feet were bare. "You are a fool!" decided Aristid Kuvalda. "What are you knocking about here for?
You are playing tricks ..." "Well ... It is no business of yours." "Look out! I shall tell ..." again threatened Tyapa. Aristid Fomich looked at him sullenly and said nothing. Again they sat there in that silence which, in the presence of the dead, is so full of mystery. "Listen ... They are coming!" Tyapa got up and went out of the dosshouse.
Aristid Kuvalda abused this pleasure, and never could have enough of it, much to the disgust of Abyedok, Kubar, and others of these creatures that once were men, who were less interested in such things. Politics, however, were more to the popular taste. The discussions as to the necessity of taking India or of subduing England were lengthy and protracted.

This incident confirms the expressed fear of Miltiades, that delay in giving battle might produce division and treachery among some of the Athenians.
"One, two, three," counted Aristid Fomich; "our full number is thirty, the teacher is not here . . . but probably many other outcasts will come. Let us calculate, say, twenty persons, and to every person two-and-a-half cucumbers, a pound of bread, and a pound of meat . . . That won't be bad! One bottle of vodki each, and there is plenty of sour cabbage, and three watermelons.
He must needs bow before this power. But, nevertheless, the soldier thought of trying him once more. He sighed deeply, and began with apparent calmness: "It is truly said that a man's sin will find him out ... I lied to you, Aristid Fomich, ... I tried to be cleverer than I am ... I only received one hundred roubles." "Go on!" said Kuvalda. "And not four hundred as I told you ... That means ..."
"It does not mean anything. It is all the same to me whether you lied or not. You owe me sixty-five roubles. That is not much, eh?" "Oh! my Lord! Aristid Fomich! I have always been attentive to your honour and done my best to please you." "Drop all that, Egorka, grandchild of Judas!" "All right! I will give it you ... only God will punish you for this...." "Silence!
