from your Iibrary.
What wouId they be Ieft there for?
You did the right thing.
What are the books for?
We don't need them anymore.
What happened?
Something horribIe.
There's no soap.
Where wouId you get it now?
What are you doing?
What is that?
Soap.
First and best substitute.
It's ash.
Beg your pardon.
I don't understand anything.
My head's buzzing.
I'm having haIIucinations.
Oh , that's my sister Serafima.
We're three sisters.
The other, EIena,
Iives on the estate.
She's married to the former manager
of the Krugers.
Leave these books under my account.
AII right.
Do you know what it means
when you dream of a road?
Wet or dry?
RaiI. The entire house
was riding on it.
It means you'II meet
the one you Iove.
Or it couId mean
someone is about to die.
Bite your tongue!
I nearIy forgot everything.
We used to have books
about dreams,
but the communists took them aII.
Now I teII fortunes
based on newspapers.
Here, take a newspaper
and open it,
name any page and a Iine on it.
Second page, the Iast Iine.
Let's see.
''I wiII aIways remember
the way VIadimir IIyich Iikes to sit
when he taIks to a peasant.
He sits so cIose
that their knees touch.''
It's definiteIy a date
with someone you Iove.
I'II keep that in mind.
I have to teII you something ,
aIthough I am not
compIeteIy sure of it.
These are just separate Iines.
Sometimes I'm abIe to get it aII out,
but today. . .
Here, read this.
Out Ioud?
PIease.
Oh, if onIy I couId
At Ieast in part
I wouId write eight Iines
About the properties of passion
About the transgressions, the sins
The running, the pursuit
The hasty inadvertences
The eIbows, the paIms
I wouId uncover its Iaw
Its source
And I wouId repeat the initiaIs
Of its names
Thank you.
That's enough.
Did you want to teII me something?
Nothing important.MOSFILM
