This time Pavel Ivanich coughed and answered irritably: "You spoke just now of a ship colliding with a large fish, and now you talk of the wind breaking loose.... Is the wind a dog to break loose?" "That's what people say." "Then people are as ignorant as you.... But what do they not say? You should keep a head on your shoulders and think. Silly idiot!" Pavel Ivanich was subject to seasickness.

We carried him into the waiting-room, with the blood pouring down a terrible business and all the while he kept on asking anxiously for his foot; he had twenty-five roubles in his boot and did not want to lose them." "Keep to your story," said Bourkin. "After the death of his wife," Ivan Ivanich continued, after a long pause, "my brother began to look out for an estate.

They had not been bought, but were his own gooseberries, plucked for the first time since the bushes were planted. Nicholai Ivanich laughed with joy and for a minute or two he looked in silence at the gooseberries with tears in his eyes.

"Perhaps Sergei Ivanich knows some sort of magic word," jested Ramses. "Or is held here in an especially honoured state?" Boris Sobashnikov put in pointedly, with emphasis.

But, although I saw beforehand that it would be disagreeable to you, Fedor Ivanich, yet I couldn't make up my mind to refuse her. She is a relation of mine through you. Only put yourself into my position. What right had I to shut my door in her face? Surely you must agree with me." "You are exciting yourself quite unnecessarily, Maria Dmitrievna," replied Lavretsky.

What a charming little creature! How pretty she is! and how good! and how well she speaks French! And she knows Russian too. She called me aunt in Russian. And then as to shyness, you know, almost all children of her age are shy; but she is not at all so. It's wonderful how like you she is, Fedor Ivanich eyes, eyebrows, in fact you all over absolutely you.

"I heard you, Sergei Ivanich right away," unhurriedly but respectfully responded Simeon, and, bending down and letting out a grunt, resoundingly drew the cork out of the neck of the bottle. "It's the first time I hear of cognac being served in Yama," uttered Lichonin with amazement. "No matter how much I asked, they always refused me."

Pavel Ivanich got tired with talking, and his breath failed him, but he went on: "Yes. I always tell the truth straight out.... I am afraid of nobody and nothing. There's a great difference between myself and you in that respect. You are dull, blind, stupid, you see nothing, and you don't understand what you do see.

"You have done what is perfectly right. I am not in the least angry. I never intended to deprive my wife of the power of seeing her acquaintances. I did not come to see you to-day simply because I did not wish to meet her. That was all." "Ah! how glad I am to hear you say that, Fedor Ivanich!" exclaimed Maria Dmitrievna. "However, I always expected as much from your noble feelings.

"We are two brothers," he began, "I, Ivan Ivanich, and Nicholai Ivanich, two years younger. I went in for study and became a veterinary surgeon, while Nicholai was at the Exchequer Court when he was nineteen. Our father, Tchimasha-Himalaysky, was a cantonist, but he died with an officer's rank and left us his title of nobility and a small estate. After his death the estate went to pay his debts.
