Fédor Iványch. Did she talk to you about it?
Yákov. This very minute. Fédor Iványch, intercede for me! My family has just been getting on its legs, and if I should lose this place, who knows when I should find another? Fédor Iványch, do me the favour!
Anna Pávlovna. Of course. I am truly touched.
Countess. If it were not for my ill health, I should come to see you more frequently.
Anna Pávlovna. Really, you ought to try Peter Petróvich. He is rough, but no one will soothe you better. Everything is so simple and clear with him.
Countess. No, I am used to my own doctor.
Anna Pávlovna. Look out!
Countess. Merci, mille fois merci!
Semén. You leave her alone!
Grigóri. I will teach you, rascal, how to fight! You good-for-nothing!
Anna Pávlovna. What is this? Are you in an inn?
Grigóri. I can't stand this coarse peasant.
