The next day I see Yákoff take his cap.... I think to myself: "Shall I ask him whither he is going? But no, better not ask ... it certainly must be to her!"... And, in point of fact, Yákoff did set off for Márfa Sávishna's house and sat with her still longer than before; and on the day following he did it again! Then again, the next day but one!
The day before the funeral I felt as though I should like to rest a little after luncheon, and accordingly went to Natalia Savishna's room with the intention of installing myself comfortably under the warm, soft down of the quilt on her bed.
He even began to shout at me. But at last I conquered him, and hitching up my little sledge, I drove him to Márfa Sávishna's, and, according to our compact, I left him alone with her. I was surprised at his having consented so speedily. Well, never mind, we shall see. Three or four hours later my Yákoff returns. "Well," I ask, "how did our little neighbour please thee?" He made me no answer.
