it. What a wonderful conciliator death is! I confess there was a time  
when Fédya--whom I had known from a child--was repulsive to me; but now  
I only remember him as that nice lad, Victor's friend, and as the  
passionate man who sacrificed himself--illegally and irreligiously, but  
still sacrificed himself--for those he loved. On aura beau dire,  
l'action est belle.[25]... I hope Victor will not forget to bring the  
wool: I've hardly any left. [Knits].  
[
25] Say what one likes--it is a fine action.  
LISA. I hear him coming.  
The sound of wheels and bells is heard. Lisa rises, and goes to the  
edge of the veranda.  
LISA. There's someone with him, a lady in a bonnet--It's Mother! I have  
not seen her for an age. [Goes to the door].

brought me here.  
ANNA DMÍTRIEVNA. He has done well.
