Prince
Andrew
had
spent
two
years
continuously
in
the
country
.
All
the
plans
Pierre
had
attempted
on
his
estates
--
and
constantly
changing
from
one
thing
to
another
had
never
accomplished
--
were
carried
out
by
Prince
Andrew
without
display
and
without
perceptible
difficulty
.
He
had
in
the
highest
degree
a
practical
tenacity
which
Pierre
lacked
,
and
without
fuss
or
strain
on
his
part
this
set
things
going
.
On
one
of
his
estates
the
three
hundred
serfs
were
liberated
and
became
free
agricultural
laborers
--
this
being
one
of
the
first
examples
of
the
kind
in
Russia
.
On
other
estates
the
serfs
'
compulsory
labor
was
commuted
for
a
quitrent
.
A
trained
midwife
was
engaged
for
Boguchárovo
at
his
expense
,
and
a
priest
was
paid
to
teach
reading
and
writing
to
the
children
of
the
peasants
and
household
serfs
.
Prince
Andrew
spent
half
his
time
at
Bald
Hills
with
his
father
and
his
son
,
who
was
still
in
the
care
of
nurses
.
The
other
half
he
spent
in
"
Boguchárovo
Cloister
,
"
as
his
father
called
Prince
Andrew
's
estate
.
Despite
the
indifference
to
the
affairs
of
the
world
he
had
expressed
to
Pierre
,
he
diligently
followed
all
that
went
on
,
received
many
books
,
and
to
his
surprise
noticed
that
when
he
or
his
father
had
visitors
from
Petersburg
,
the
very
vortex
of
life
,
these
people
lagged
behind
himself
--
who
never
left
the
country
--
in
knowledge
of
what
was
happening
in
home
and
foreign
affairs
.
Besides
being
occupied
with
his
estates
and
reading
a
great
variety
of
books
,
Prince
Andrew
was
at
this
time
busy
with
a
critical
survey
of
our
last
two
unfortunate
campaigns
,
and
with
drawing
up
a
proposal
for
a
reform
of
the
army
rules
and
regulations
.
In
the
spring
of
1809
he
went
to
visit
the
Ryazán
estates
which
had
been
inherited
by
his
son
,
whose
guardian
he
was
.
Warmed
by
the
spring
sunshine
he
sat
in
the
calèche
looking
at
the
new
grass
,
the
first
leaves
on
the
birches
,
and
the
first
puffs
of
white
spring
clouds
floating
across
the
clear
blue
sky
.
He
was
not
thinking
of
anything
,
but
looked
absent-mindedly
and
cheerfully
from
side
to
side
.
They
crossed
the
ferry
where
he
had
talked
with
Pierre
the
year
before
.
They
went
through
the
muddy
village
,
past
threshing
floors
and
green
fields
of
winter
rye
,
downhill
where
snow
still
lodged
near
the
bridge
,
uphill
where
the
clay
had
been
liquefied
by
the
rain
,
past
strips
of
stubble
land
and
bushes
touched
with
green
here
and
there
,
and
into
a
birch
forest
growing
on
both
sides
of
the
road
.
In
the
forest
it
was
almost
hot
,
no
wind
could
be
felt
.
The
birches
with
their
sticky
green
leaves
were
motionless
,
and
lilac-colored
flowers
and
the
first
blades
of
green
grass
were
pushing
up
and
lifting
last
year
's
leaves
.
The
coarse
evergreen
color
of
the
small
fir
trees
scattered
here
and
there
among
the
birches
was
an
unpleasant
reminder
of
winter
.
On
entering
the
forest
the
horses
began
to
snort
and
sweated
visibly
.
Peter
the
footman
made
some
remark
to
the
coachman
;
the
latter
assented
.
