Vronsky
’
s
mother
,
on
hearing
of
his
connection
,
was
at
first
pleased
at
it
,
because
nothing
to
her
mind
gave
such
a
finishing
touch
to
a
brilliant
young
man
as
a
liaison
in
the
highest
society
;
she
was
pleased
,
too
,
that
Madame
Karenina
,
who
had
so
taken
her
fancy
,
and
had
talked
so
much
of
her
son
,
was
,
after
all
,
just
like
all
other
pretty
and
well
-
bred
women
,
—
at
least
according
to
the
Countess
Vronskaya
’
s
ideas
.
But
she
had
heard
of
late
that
her
son
had
refused
a
position
offered
him
of
great
importance
to
his
career
,
simply
in
order
to
remain
in
the
regiment
,
where
he
could
be
constantly
seeing
Madame
Karenina
.
She
learned
that
great
personages
were
displeased
with
him
on
this
account
,
and
she
changed
her
opinion
.
She
was
vexed
,
too
,
that
from
all
she
could
learn
of
this
connection
it
was
not
that
brilliant
,
graceful
,
worldly
liaison
which
she
would
have
welcomed
,
but
a
sort
of
Wertherish
,
desperate
passion
,
so
she
was
told
,
which
might
well
lead
him
into
imprudence
.
She
had
not
seen
him
since
his
abrupt
departure
from
Moscow
,
and
she
sent
her
elder
son
to
bid
him
come
to
see
her
This
elder
son
,
too
,
was
displeased
with
his
younger
brother
.
He
did
not
distinguish
what
sort
of
love
his
might
be
,
big
or
little
,
passionate
or
passionless
,
lasting
or
passing
(
he
kept
a
ballet
girl
himself
,
though
he
was
the
father
of
a
family
,
so
he
was
lenient
in
these
matters
)
,
but
he
knew
that
this
love
affair
was
viewed
with
displeasure
by
those
whom
it
was
necessary
to
please
,
and
therefore
he
did
not
approve
of
his
brother
’
s
conduct
.
Besides
the
service
and
society
,
Vronsky
had
another
great
interest
—
horses
;
he
was
passionately
fond
of
horses
.
That
year
races
and
a
steeplechase
had
been
arranged
for
the
officers
.
Vronsky
had
put
his
name
down
,
bought
a
thoroughbred
English
mare
,
and
in
spite
of
his
love
affair
,
he
was
looking
forward
to
the
races
with
intense
,
though
reserved
,
excitement
.
.
.
.
These
two
passions
did
not
interfere
with
one
another
.
On
the
contrary
,
he
needed
occupation
and
distraction
quite
apart
from
his
love
,
so
as
to
recruit
and
rest
himself
from
the
violent
emotions
that
agitated
him
.
On
the
day
of
the
races
at
Krasnoe
Selo
,
Vronsky
had
come
earlier
than
usual
to
eat
beefsteak
in
the
common
messroom
of
the
regiment
.
He
had
no
need
to
be
strict
with
himself
,
as
he
had
very
quickly
been
brought
down
to
the
required
light
weight
;
but
still
he
had
to
avoid
gaining
flesh
,
and
so
he
eschewed
farinaceous
and
sweet
dishes
.
He
sat
with
his
coat
unbuttoned
over
a
white
waistcoat
,
resting
both
elbows
on
the
table
,
and
while
waiting
for
the
steak
he
had
ordered
he
looked
at
a
French
novel
that
lay
open
on
his
plate
.
He
was
only
looking
at
the
book
to
avoid
conversation
with
the
officers
coming
in
and
out
;
he
was
thinking
.
He
was
thinking
of
Anna
’
s
promise
to
see
him
that
day
after
the
races
.
But
he
had
not
seen
her
for
three
days
,
and
as
her
husband
had
just
returned
from
abroad
,
he
did
not
know
whether
she
would
be
able
to
meet
him
today
or
not
,
and
he
did
not
know
how
to
find
out
.
He
had
had
his
last
interview
with
her
at
his
cousin
Betsy
’
s
summer
villa
.
He
visited
the
Karenins
’
summer
villa
as
rarely
as
possible
.
Now
he
wanted
to
go
there
,
and
he
pondered
the
question
how
to
do
it
.
“
Of
course
I
shall
say
Betsy
has
sent
me
to
ask
whether
she
’
s
coming
to
the
races
.
Of
course
,
I
’
ll
go
,
”
he
decided
,
lifting
his
head
from
the
book
.
And
as
he
vividly
pictured
the
happiness
of
seeing
her
,
his
face
lighted
up
.
“
Send
to
my
house
,
and
tell
them
to
have
out
the
carriage
and
three
horses
as
quick
as
they
can
,
”
he
said
to
the
servant
,
who
handed
him
the
steak
on
a
hot
silver
dish
,
and
moving
the
dish
up
he
began
eating
.
From
the
billiard
room
next
door
came
the
sound
of
balls
knocking
,
of
talk
and
laughter
.
Two
officers
appeared
at
the
entrance
-
door
:
one
,
a
young
fellow
,
with
a
feeble
,
delicate
face
,
who
had
lately
joined
the
regiment
from
the
Corps
of
Pages
;
the
other
,
a
plump
,
elderly
officer
,
with
a
bracelet
on
his
wrist
,
and
little
eyes
,
lost
in
fat
.
