"
Surely
not
?
"
"
But
it
is
so
.
"
"
Then
might
I
also
ask
whether
it
is
from
the
date
of
the
last
census
revision
that
you
are
reckoning
these
souls
?
"
"
Yes
,
damn
it
!
And
since
that
date
I
have
been
bled
for
taxes
upon
a
hundred
and
twenty
souls
in
all
.
"
"
Indeed
!
Upon
a
hundred
and
twenty
souls
in
all
!
"
And
Chichikov
's
surprise
and
elation
were
such
that
,
this
said
,
he
remained
sitting
open-mouthed
.
"
Yes
,
good
sir
,
"
replied
Plushkin
.
"
I
am
too
old
to
tell
you
lies
,
for
I
have
passed
my
seventieth
year
.
"
Somehow
he
seemed
to
have
taken
offence
at
Chichikov
's
almost
joyous
exclamation
;
wherefore
the
guest
hastened
to
heave
a
profound
sigh
,
and
to
observe
that
he
sympathised
to
the
full
with
his
host
's
misfortunes
.
"
But
sympathy
does
not
put
anything
into
one
's
pocket
,
"
retorted
Plushkin
.
"
For
instance
,
I
have
a
kinsman
who
is
constantly
plaguing
me
.
He
is
a
captain
in
the
army
,
damn
him
,
and
all
day
he
does
nothing
but
call
me
'
dear
uncle
,
'
and
kiss
my
hand
,
and
express
sympathy
until
I
am
forced
to
stop
my
ears
.
You
see
,
he
has
squandered
all
his
money
upon
his
brother-officers
,
as
well
as
made
a
fool
of
himself
with
an
actress
;
so
now
he
spends
his
time
in
telling
me
that
he
has
a
sympathetic
heart
!
"
Chichikov
hastened
to
explain
that
HIS
sympathy
had
nothing
in
common
with
the
captain
's
,
since
he
dealt
,
not
in
empty
words
alone
,
but
in
actual
deeds
;
in
proof
of
which
he
was
ready
then
and
there
(
for
the
purpose
of
cutting
the
matter
short
,
and
of
dispensing
with
circumlocution
)
to
transfer
to
himself
the
obligation
of
paying
the
taxes
due
upon
such
serfs
as
Plushkin
's
as
had
,
in
the
unfortunate
manner
just
described
,
departed
this
world
.
The
proposal
seemed
to
astonish
Plushkin
,
for
he
sat
staring
open-eyed
.
At
length
he
inquired
:
"
My
dear
sir
,
have
you
seen
military
service
?
"
