A lull ensued in the "military operations" of the Russian barbarians which continued until the month of July of the same year. In the beginning of May, 1881, the well-known diplomatist Nicholas Pavlovich Ignatyev was called by the Tzar to the post of Minister of the Interior.
"How can you say such things? If he came to me at that hour, I would settle him. No, Boris Pavlovich, live like other decent people. Stay with us, have dinner with us, go out with us, keep suspicious people at a distance, see how I administer your estate, and find fault if I do anything wrong." "That is so monotonous, Grandmother. Let us rather live each one after his own ideas and inclinations."
Hear us when we pray to Thee; strengthen with Thy might our most gracious sovereign lord, the Emperor Alexander Pavlovich; be mindful of his uprightness and meekness, reward him according to his righteousness, and let it preserve us, Thy chosen Israel!
"You are an exception," sighed his aunt. "No, Grandmother, it is you who are an exceptional woman. Why should we bother about one another." "To please your Grandmother." "Why don't you want to please your Grandson? You are a despot, Grandmother." "A despot! Boris Pavlovich, I have waited anxiously for you, I have hardly slept, have tried to have everything as you liked it."
"Nikolai Andreevich loves me, but he is my fiance; so does his Mama, but so does my cousin, Boris Pavlovich, and what am I to him?" "The same as you are to everyone.

By the time he was eighteen he had finished his College course and received a commission as lieutenant in an aristocratic regiment of the Guards. Kasatsky himself strongly desired it, not from ambition only but chiefly because since his cadet days he had been passionately devoted to Nicholas Pavlovich.
As if Boris Pavlovich could have guessed it. I have wanted a little enamelled watch like this for a long time." "You haven't asked your Grandmother why she gives you nothing?" Marfinka shut her mouth with a kiss. "Grandmother," she said, "love me always, if you want to make me happy." "With my love I will give you my enduring gift," she said, making the sign of the cross over Marfinka.
But you have, as my nephew says, accumulated stolen wealth, and it has been endured out of weakness. You should hold your tongue, and repent in your old age of your evil life. But you are bursting, intoxicated with pride. Sober yourself and bow your head. Before you stands Tatiana Markovna Berezhkov, and also my nephew Boris Pavlovich Raisky.
