At
the
moment
the
door
opened
and
the
stranger
came
in
,
Pierre
felt
a
sense
of
awe
and
veneration
such
as
he
had
experienced
in
his
boyhood
at
confession
;
he
felt
himself
in
the
presence
of
one
socially
a
complete
stranger
,
yet
nearer
to
him
through
the
brotherhood
of
man
.
With
bated
breath
and
beating
heart
he
moved
toward
the
Rhetor
(
by
which
name
the
brother
who
prepared
a
seeker
for
entrance
into
the
Brotherhood
was
known
)
.
Drawing
nearer
,
he
recognized
in
the
Rhetor
a
man
he
knew
,
Smolyanínov
,
and
it
mortified
him
to
think
that
the
newcomer
was
an
acquaintance
--
he
wished
him
simply
a
brother
and
a
virtuous
instructor
.
For
a
long
time
he
could
not
utter
a
word
,
so
that
the
Rhetor
had
to
repeat
his
question
.
"
Yes
...
I.
.
.
I.
.
.
desire
regeneration
,
"
Pierre
uttered
with
difficulty
.
"
Very
well
,
"
said
Smolyanínov
,
and
went
on
at
once
:
"
Have
you
any
idea
of
the
means
by
which
our
holy
Order
will
help
you
to
reach
your
aim
?
"
said
he
quietly
and
quickly
.
"
I.
.
.
hope
...
for
guidance
...
help
...
in
regeneration
,
"
said
Pierre
,
with
a
trembling
voice
and
some
difficulty
in
utterance
due
to
his
excitement
and
to
being
unaccustomed
to
speak
of
abstract
matters
in
Russian
.
"
What
is
your
conception
of
Freemasonry
?
"
"
I
imagine
that
Freemasonry
is
the
fraternity
and
equality
of
men
who
have
virtuous
aims
,
"
said
Pierre
,
feeling
ashamed
of
the
inadequacy
of
his
words
for
the
solemnity
of
the
moment
,
as
he
spoke
.
"
I
imagine
...
"
"
Good
!
"
said
the
Rhetor
quickly
,
apparently
satisfied
with
this
answer
.
"
Have
you
sought
for
means
of
attaining
your
aim
in
religion
?
"
"
No
,
I
considered
it
erroneous
and
did
not
follow
it
,
"
said
Pierre
,
so
softly
that
the
Rhetor
did
not
hear
him
and
asked
him
what
he
was
saying
.
"
I
have
been
an
atheist
,
"
answered
Pierre
.
"
You
are
seeking
for
truth
in
order
to
follow
its
laws
in
your
life
,
therefore
you
seek
wisdom
and
virtue
.
