words!
l am Varvara Ardalionovna's guest, not yours.
l believe you are yourself indebted to
Mr. Ptitsin's hospitality.
l certainly do feel better here,
though l am not fat, nor have l ceased to cough.
Four days ago l begged my mother to come
down here and find lodgings.
l intend to leave the house this evening.
l beg your pardon. l interrupted you
l think you were about to add something?
May l ask you to be so good
as to leave this room?
You'd better speak out.
You'll be sorry afterwards if you don't.
Hippolyte, stop, please!
lt's so dreadfully undignified.
Because an explanation between your brother
and myself
has become an absolute necessity,
ln inviting me here you yourself entrapped me
for your own use.
You thought l wished to revenge myself
upon the prince.
l am quite content to leave you to your conscience,
and to feel that we understand one another capitally.
What a history you are weaving out
of the most ordinary circumstances!
l told you the fellow was nothing but
a scandalmonger.
Excuse me, Varia Ardalionovna,
l will proceed.
l can, of course, neither love
nor respect the prince,
though he is a good-hearted fellow,
if a little queer.
But there is no need whatever for me
to hate him.
l quite understood your brother when he first offered
me aid against the prince, though l did not show it.
l knew well that your brother
was making a ridiculous mistake in me.
l will proceed to explain why
l specially wished to make your brother look a fool.
l hate you, Gavrila Ardalionovitch, solely because
you are the type, and incarnation,
and head, and crown of the most impudent,
the most self-satisfied, the most vulgar
and detestable form of commonplaceness.
You have no chance of ever fathering
the pettiest idea of your own.
You consider yourself a great genius
Although there are dark moments
of doubt and rage.
You will never gain a certain person.
This is intolerable! You had better stop,
you little mischief-making wretch!
Are you off?
Wait a moment.
look at this.
Gavrila Ardolionovich
persuaded of your kindness of heart,
l have determined to ask your advice
on a matter of great importance to myself.
l should like to meet you tomorrow morning
at seven o'clock by the green bench.
lt is not far from our house.
Varvara Ardalionovna, who must accompany you,
knows the place well.
A. E.
Good heavens!
What on earth is one to make of a girl like that?
And this is the very day
that they were to announce the engagement!
What do you suppose she wants
to talk about tomorrow?
Oh, that`s all the same!
The chief thing is that she wants to see you.
Look here, Gania, this is a serious business.
Very serious.
Don't swagger again and lose the game
play carefully, but don't funk,
As if she could possibly avoid seeing what
l have been working for all this last six months!
We can't let him go out!
We can't afford to have a breath of scandal
about the town at this moment
Run after him and beg his pardon,
quick.
He'll be back here in half an hour.
What are you up to?
Where are you off to?
You've nowhere to go to, you know.
''Come back, father; the neighbours will hear!''
My curse be upon this house!
Never!
Which observation should always be made
in as theatrical a tone as possible.
