But
yet
inevitably
the
Shtcherbatskys
were
thrown
most
into
the
society
of
a
Moscow
lady
,
Marya
Yevgenyevna
Rtishtcheva
and
her
daughter
,
whom
Kitty
disliked
,
because
she
had
fallen
ill
,
like
herself
,
over
a
love
affair
,
and
a
Moscow
colonel
,
whom
Kitty
had
known
from
childhood
,
and
always
seen
in
uniform
and
epaulets
,
and
who
now
,
with
his
little
eyes
and
his
open
neck
and
flowered
cravat
,
was
uncommonly
ridiculous
and
tedious
,
because
there
was
no
getting
rid
of
him
.
When
all
this
was
so
firmly
established
,
Kitty
began
to
be
very
much
bored
,
especially
as
the
prince
went
away
to
Carlsbad
and
she
was
left
alone
with
her
mother
.
She
took
no
interest
in
the
people
she
knew
,
feeling
that
nothing
fresh
would
come
of
them
.
Her
chief
mental
interest
in
the
watering
-
place
consisted
in
watching
and
making
theories
about
the
people
she
did
not
know
.
It
was
characteristic
of
Kitty
that
she
always
imagined
everything
in
people
in
the
most
favorable
light
possible
,
especially
so
in
those
she
did
not
know
.
And
now
as
she
made
surmises
as
to
who
people
were
,
what
were
their
relations
to
one
another
,
and
what
they
were
like
,
Kitty
endowed
them
with
the
most
marvelous
and
noble
characters
,
and
found
confirmation
of
her
idea
in
her
observations
.
Of
these
people
the
one
that
attracted
her
most
was
a
Russian
girl
who
had
come
to
the
watering
-
place
with
an
invalid
Russian
lady
,
Madame
Stahl
,
as
everyone
called
her
.
Madame
Stahl
belonged
to
the
highest
society
,
but
she
was
so
ill
that
she
could
not
walk
,
and
only
on
exceptionally
fine
days
made
her
appearance
at
the
springs
in
an
invalid
carriage
.
But
it
was
not
so
much
from
ill
-
health
as
from
pride
—
so
Princess
Shtcherbatskaya
interpreted
it
—
that
Madame
Stahl
had
not
made
the
acquaintance
of
anyone
among
the
Russians
there
.
The
Russian
girl
looked
after
Madame
Stahl
,
and
besides
that
,
she
was
,
as
Kitty
observed
,
on
friendly
terms
with
all
the
invalids
who
were
seriously
ill
,
and
there
were
many
of
them
at
the
springs
,
and
looked
after
them
in
the
most
natural
way
.
This
Russian
girl
was
not
,
as
Kitty
gathered
,
related
to
Madame
Stahl
,
nor
was
she
a
paid
attendant
.
Madame
Stahl
called
her
Varenka
,
and
other
people
called
her
“
Mademoiselle
Varenka
.
”
Apart
from
the
interest
Kitty
took
in
this
girl
’
s
relations
with
Madame
Stahl
and
with
other
unknown
persons
,
Kitty
,
as
often
happened
,
felt
an
inexplicable
attraction
to
Mademoiselle
Varenka
,
and
was
aware
when
their
eyes
met
that
she
too
liked
her
.
Of
Mademoiselle
Varenka
one
would
not
say
that
she
had
passed
her
first
youth
,
but
she
was
,
as
it
were
,
a
creature
without
youth
;
she
might
have
been
taken
for
nineteen
or
for
thirty
.
If
her
features
were
criticized
separately
,
she
was
handsome
rather
than
plain
,
in
spite
of
the
sickly
hue
of
her
face
.
She
would
have
been
a
good
figure
,
too
,
if
it
had
not
been
for
her
extreme
thinness
and
the
size
of
her
head
,
which
was
too
large
for
her
medium
height
.
But
she
was
not
likely
to
be
attractive
to
men
.
She
was
like
a
fine
flower
,
already
past
its
bloom
and
without
fragrance
,
though
the
petals
were
still
unwithered
.
Moreover
,
she
would
have
been
unattractive
to
men
also
from
the
lack
of
just
what
Kitty
had
too
much
of
—
of
the
suppressed
fire
of
vitality
,
and
the
consciousness
of
her
own
attractiveness
.
She
always
seemed
absorbed
in
work
about
which
there
could
be
no
doubt
,
and
so
it
seemed
she
could
not
take
interest
in
anything
outside
it
.
It
was
just
this
contrast
with
her
own
position
that
was
for
Kitty
the
great
attraction
of
Mademoiselle
Varenka
.
Kitty
felt
that
in
her
,
in
her
manner
of
life
,
she
would
find
an
example
of
what
she
was
now
so
painfully
seeking
:
interest
in
life
,
a
dignity
in
life
—
apart
from
the
worldly
relations
of
girls
with
men
,
which
so
revolted
Kitty
,
and
appeared
to
her
now
as
a
shameful
hawking
about
of
goods
in
search
of
a
purchaser
.
The
more
attentively
Kitty
watched
her
unknown
friend
,
the
more
convinced
she
was
this
girl
was
the
perfect
creature
she
fancied
her
,
and
the
more
eagerly
she
wished
to
make
her
acquaintance
.
The
two
girls
used
to
meet
several
times
a
day
,
and
every
time
they
met
,
Kitty
’
s
eyes
said
:
“
Who
are
you
?
What
are
you
?
Are
you
really
the
exquisite
creature
I
imagine
you
to
be
?
But
for
goodness
’
sake
don
’
t
suppose
,
”
her
eyes
added
,
“
that
I
would
force
my
acquaintance
on
you
,
I
simply
admire
you
and
like
you
.
”
“
I
like
you
too
,
and
you
’
re
very
,
very
sweet
.
And
I
should
like
you
better
still
,
if
I
had
time
,
”
answered
the
eyes
of
the
unknown
girl
.
Kitty
saw
indeed
,
that
she
was
always
busy
Either
she
was
taking
the
children
of
a
Russian
family
home
from
the
springs
,
or
fetching
a
shawl
for
a
sick
lady
,
and
wrapping
her
up
in
it
,
or
trying
to
interest
an
irritable
invalid
,
or
selecting
and
buying
cakes
for
tea
for
someone
.
Soon
after
the
arrival
of
the
Shtcherbatskys
there
appeared
in
the
morning
crowd
at
the
springs
two
persons
who
attracted
universal
and
unfavorable
attention
.
These
were
a
tall
man
with
a
stooping
figure
,
and
huge
hands
,
in
an
old
coat
too
short
for
him
,
with
black
,
simple
,
and
yet
terrible
eyes
,
and
a
pockmarked
,
kind
-
looking
woman
,
very
badly
and
tastelessly
dressed
.
Recognizing
these
persons
as
Russians
,
Kitty
had
already
in
her
imagination
begun
constructing
a
delightful
and
touching
romance
about
them
.
But
the
princess
,
having
ascertained
from
the
visitors
’
list
that
this
was
Nikolay
Levin
and
Marya
Nikolaevna
,
explained
to
Kitty
what
a
bad
man
this
Levin
was
,
and
all
her
fancies
about
these
two
people
vanished
.
Not
so
much
from
what
her
mother
told
her
,
as
from
the
fact
that
it
was
Konstantin
’
s
brother
,
this
pair
suddenly
seemed
to
Kitty
intensely
unpleasant
.
This
Levin
,
with
his
continual
twitching
of
his
head
,
aroused
in
her
now
an
irrepressible
feeling
of
disgust
.
It
seemed
to
her
that
his
big
,
terrible
eyes
,
which
persistently
pursued
her
,
expressed
a
feeling
of
hatred
and
contempt
,
and
she
tried
to
avoid
meeting
him
.
