FÉDYA. Directly! [Takes out revolver and shoots himself in the heart.  
Falls. All rush on him] All right, I think it is done.... Lisa!...  
The audience, judges, accused, and witnesses rush out from all the  
doors.  
In front of all is Lisa. Behind her Másha, Karénin, Iván Petróvich  
and Prince Abrézkov.  
LISA. Fédya, what have you done! Why?  
FÉDYA. Forgive me that I could not ... free you any other way.... It's  
not for you ... it's best for me. I have long ... been ready ...  
LISA. You will live!  
A Doctor bends over Fédya and listens.  
FÉDYA. I need no doctor to tell me ... Good-bye, Victor ... Ah,  
Másha!... it's too late this time ... [Weeps] How good ... how good!  
[
Dies].  
Curtain.
