Pulcheria Alexandrovna was beginning, once more pressing Razumihin's hands, but Raskolnikov interrupted her again. "I can't have it! I can't have it!" he repeated irritably, "don't worry me! Enough, go away... I can't stand it!" "Come, mamma, come out of the room at least for a minute," Dounia whispered in dismay; "we are distressing him, that's evident."
Yet the devotion of Pulcheria never diverted her indefatigable attention from temporal affairs; and she alone, among all the descendants of the great Theodosius, appears to have inherited any share of his manly spirit and abilities.

"I thank you warmly. I will entreat my mother most urgently. . . ." "Do so," interrupted Paula. "Have you ever seen Pulcheria, the daughter of my worthy host?" "Yes. A singularly lovable creature!" "She will soon take Mary into her faithful heart " "And our poor little girl needs a friend, now that Susannah has forbidden her daughter to visit at our house."
And it will not be for long, for my mother really means to go away. You are older than I am, of course, and much graver and wiser...." "I will be kind to you, child; but try to make friends with Pulcheria!" "Gladly, gladly. But then my mother! I should get on very well by myself if it were not... Well, you yourself heard what Orion said to me, that time in the avenue. He surely loved me a little!
"Yes... he was so kind... Dounia, I promised Luzhin I'd throw him downstairs and told him to go to hell...." "Rodya, what are you saying! Surely, you don't mean to tell us..." Pulcheria Alexandrovna began in alarm, but she stopped, looking at Dounia. Avdotya Romanovna was looking attentively at her brother, waiting for what would come next.

If only you knew, though, what a strange thing you said just now, mother," he said, laughing strangely.
"And you only tell us now?" wept Pulcheria, while Mary broke out: "And yet you have been able to jest and laugh, and you I hate you! And if you were not such a helpless, old, old man..." But here Joanna again silenced the child, and she asked between her sobs: "Executed? Will they cut off her head?
Herewith expressing my special respect to your estimable daughter, Avdotya Romanovna, I beg you to accept the respectful homage of "Your humble servant, "What am I to do now, Dmitri Prokofitch?" began Pulcheria Alexandrovna, almost weeping. "How can I ask Rodya not to come? Yesterday he insisted so earnestly on our refusing Pyotr Petrovitch and now we are ordered not to receive Rodya!
