ANNA PÁVLOVNA. Yes indeed, a "wonderful" man--as soon as he has money
in
his pocket--his own or other people's....
SÁSHA. Mother! He has never taken other people's!
ANNA PÁVLOVNA. Yes he has--his wife's! Where's the difference?
SÁSHA. But he gave all his property to his wife!
ANNA PÁVLOVNA. Of course, when he knew that otherwise he was sure to
squander it all!
SÁSHA. Squander or not, I only know that a wife must not separate from
her husband, especially from such a one as Fédya.
ANNA PÁVLOVNA. Then, in your opinion she ought to wait till he has
squandered everything, and brought his gipsy mistresses into the house?
SÁSHA. He has no mistresses!
ANNA PÁVLOVNA. That's the misfortune--he seems to have bewitched you
all! But not me--no! He won't come over me! I see through him, and he
knows it. Had I been in Lisa's place I should have left him a year ago.
