KOROTKÓV. The gipsy. She's in love with him, like a cat.  
STÁKHOV. What a darling she is ...! And how she sings!  
AFRÉMOV. Charming! Tanyúsha and she! They sang with Peter yesterday.  
STÁKHOV. What a lucky fellow that is!  
AFRÉMOV. Why? Because the girls are all sweet on him? Not much luck in  
that!  
KOROTKÓV. I can't bear gipsies--nothing refined about them.  
BUTKÉVICH. No, you can't say that!  
KOROTKÓV. I'd give the whole lot for one French woman!  
AFRÉMOV. Yes, we know you--and your æsthetics!... I'll go and see who it  
is. [Exit].  
STÁKHOV. If it's Másha, bring her in here! We'll make her sing.... No,  
the gipsies aren't what they used to be. Tanyúsha, now--by Gad!  
BUTKÉVICH. And I believe they're just the same.
