You
are
Count
Ilyá
Rostóv
's
son
?
My
wife
was
a
great
friend
of
your
mother
's
.
We
are
at
home
on
Thursdays
--
today
is
Thursday
,
so
please
come
and
see
us
quite
informally
,
"
said
the
governor
,
taking
leave
of
him
.
Immediately
on
leaving
the
governor
's
,
Nicholas
hired
post
horses
and
,
taking
his
squadron
quartermaster
with
him
,
drove
at
a
gallop
to
the
landowner
,
fourteen
miles
away
,
who
had
the
stud
.
Everything
seemed
to
him
pleasant
and
easy
during
that
first
part
of
his
stay
in
Vorónezh
and
,
as
usually
happens
when
a
man
is
in
a
pleasant
state
of
mind
,
everything
went
well
and
easily
.
The
landowner
to
whom
Nicholas
went
was
a
bachelor
,
an
old
cavalryman
,
a
horse
fancier
,
a
sportsman
,
the
possessor
of
some
century-old
brandy
and
some
old
Hungarian
wine
,
who
had
a
snuggery
where
he
smoked
,
and
who
owned
some
splendid
horses
.
In
very
few
words
Nicholas
bought
seventeen
picked
stallions
for
six
thousand
rubles
--
to
serve
,
as
he
said
,
as
samples
of
his
remounts
.
After
dining
and
taking
rather
too
much
of
the
Hungarian
wine
,
Nicholas
--
having
exchanged
kisses
with
the
landowner
,
with
whom
he
was
already
on
the
friendliest
terms
--
galloped
back
over
abominable
roads
,
in
the
brightest
frame
of
mind
,
continually
urging
on
the
driver
so
as
to
be
in
time
for
the
governor
's
party
.
When
he
had
changed
,
poured
water
over
his
head
,
and
scented
himself
,
Nicholas
arrived
at
the
governor
's
rather
late
,
but
with
the
phrase
"
better
late
than
never
"
on
his
lips
.
It
was
not
a
ball
,
nor
had
dancing
been
announced
,
but
everyone
knew
that
Catherine
Petróvna
would
play
valses
and
the
écossaise
on
the
clavichord
and
that
there
would
be
dancing
,
and
so
everyone
had
come
as
to
a
ball
.
Provincial
life
in
1812
went
on
very
much
as
usual
,
but
with
this
difference
,
that
it
was
livelier
in
the
towns
in
consequence
of
the
arrival
of
many
wealthy
families
from
Moscow
,
and
as
in
everything
that
went
on
in
Russia
at
that
time
a
special
recklessness
was
noticeable
,
an
"
in
for
a
penny
,
in
for
a
pound
--
who
cares
?
"
spirit
,
and
the
inevitable
small
talk
,
instead
of
turning
on
the
weather
and
mutual
acquaintances
,
now
turned
on
Moscow
,
the
army
,
and
Napoleon
.
The
society
gathered
together
at
the
governor
's
was
the
best
in
Vorónezh
.
There
were
a
great
many
ladies
and
some
of
Nicholas
'
Moscow
acquaintances
,
but
there
were
no
men
who
could
at
all
vie
with
the
cavalier
of
St.
George
,
the
hussar
remount
officer
,
the
good-natured
and
well-bred
Count
Rostóv
.
Among
the
men
was
an
Italian
prisoner
,
an
officer
of
the
French
army
;
and
Nicholas
felt
that
the
presence
of
that
prisoner
enhanced
his
own
importance
as
a
Russian
hero
.
The
Italian
was
,
as
it
were
,
a
war
trophy
.
Nicholas
felt
this
,
it
seemed
to
him
that
everyone
regarded
the
Italian
in
the
same
light
,
and
he
treated
him
cordially
though
with
dignity
and
restraint
.
As
soon
as
Nicholas
entered
in
his
hussar
uniform
,
diffusing
around
him
a
fragrance
of
perfume
and
wine
,
and
had
uttered
the
words
"
better
late
than
never
"
and
heard
them
repeated
several
times
by
others
,
people
clustered
around
him
;
all
eyes
turned
on
him
,
and
he
felt
at
once
that
he
had
entered
into
his
proper
position
in
the
province
--
that
of
a
universal
favorite
:
a
very
pleasant
position
,
and
intoxicatingly
so
after
his
long
privations
.
