Lebedeff came rather early before ten but he was tipsy already. Though the prince was not in an observant condition, yet he could not avoid seeing that for at least three days ever since General Ivolgin had left the house Lebedeff had been behaving very badly.
On two opposite pages of The Idiot one finds the following characters brought in by name: General Epanchin, Prince S., Adelaïda Ivanovna, Lizaveta Prokofyevna, Yevgeny Pavlovitch Radomsky, Princess Byelokonsky, Aglaia, Prince Myshkin, Kolya Ivolgin, Ippolit, Varya, Ferdyshchenko, Nastasya Filippovna, Nina Alexandrovna, Ganya, Ptitsyn, and General Ivolgin.
Take what you like for it, but get it by the evening! I'll show that I'm in earnest!" cried Rogojin, working himself up into a frenzy of excitement. "Come, come; what's all this?" cried General Ivolgin, suddenly and angrily, coming close up to Rogojin. The unexpectedness of this sally on the part of the hitherto silent old man caused some laughter among the intruders.
Now without some such rule and order, anyone might be shouted down, even in the loftiest and most profound thought...." "Go on! Go on! Nobody is going to interrupt you!" cried several voices. "Speak, but keep to the point!" "What is this 'star'?" asked another. "I have no idea," replied General Ivolgin, who presided with much gravity.

"Well, let us go in." On meeting Colia the prince determined to accompany the general, though he made up his mind to stay as short a time as possible. He wanted Colia, but firmly resolved to leave the general behind. He could not forgive himself for being so simple as to imagine that Ivolgin would be of any use.
At the same time he fervently hoped that General Sokolovitch and his family would fade away like a mirage in the desert, so that the visitors could escape, by merely returning downstairs. But to his horror he saw that General Ivolgin was quite familiar with the house, and really seemed to have friends there.
From an adjoining room came a noise of angry voices, and General Ivolgin, in loud tones, seemed to be trying to shout them down. Colia rushed off at once to investigate the cause of the uproar. "This is most interesting!" observed Evgenie Pavlovitch. "I expect he knows all about it!" thought the prince. "What, the son of Pavlicheff?
