people from whom one has only just parted.
“Where do I come from?” he said, in answer to a question from the ambassador’s wife. “Well,
there’s no help for it, I must confess. From the opera bouffe. I do believe I’ve seen it a hundred
times, and always with fresh enjoyment. It’s exquisite! I know it’s disgraceful, but I go to sleep at
the opera, and I sit out the opera bouffe to the last minute, and enjoy it. This evening…”
He mentioned a French actress, and was going to tell something about her; but the ambassador’s
wife, with playful horror,shaiya money, cut him short.
“Please don’t tell us about that horror.”
“All right, I won’t especially as everyone knows those horrors.”
“And we should all go to see them if it were accepted as the correct thing, like the opera,” chimed
in Princess Myakaya.
Steps were heard at the door, and Princess Betsy, knowing it was Madame Karenina, glanced at
Vronsky. He was looking towards the door, and his face wore a strange new expression. Joyfully,
intently, and at the same time timidly, he gazed at the approaching figure, and slowly he rose to

his feet. Anna walked into the drawing room. Holding herself extremely erect,silkroad gold, as always,rose zulie, looking
straight before her, and moving with her swift, resolute, and light step, that distinguished her from
all other society women, she crossed the short space to her hostess, shook hands with her, smiled,
and with the same smile looked around at Vronsky. Vronsky bowed low and pushed a chair up for
She acknowledged this only by a slight nod,cheap rose online zulie, flushed a little, and frowned. But immediately, while
rapidly greeting her acquaintances, and shaking the hands proffered to her, she addressed Princess
Betsy:
“I have been at Countess Lidia’s, and meant to have come here earlier, but I stayed on. Sir John
was there. He’s very interesting.”
“Oh, that’s this missionary?”
“Yes; he told us about the life in India, most interesting things.”
The conversation, interrupted by her coming in, flickered up again like the light of a lamp being
blown out.
“Sir John! Yes, Sir John; I’ve seen him. He speaks well. The Vlassieva girl’s quite in love with
him.”

punishment. But a woman must dislike being without a shadow.”
“Yes, but women with a shadow usually come to a bad end,” said Anna’s friend.
“Bad luck to your tongue!” said Princess Myakaya suddenly. “Madame Karenina’s a splendid
woman. I don’t like her husband, but I like her very much.”
“Why don’t you like her husband? He’s such a remarkable man,” said the ambassador’s wife. “My
husband says there are few statesmen like him in Europe.”
“And my husband tells me just the same, but I don’t believe it,” said Princess Myakaya. “If our
husbands didn’t talk to us, we should see the facts as they are. Alexey Alexandrovitch, to my
thinking, is simply a fool. I say it in a whisper…but doesn’t it really make everything clear?
Before, when I was told to consider him clever,flyff penya, I kept looking for his ability, and thought myself a
? 104 3 12621 3
fool for not seeing it; but directly I said, he a fool, though only in a whisper, everything’s
explained, isn’t it?”
“How spiteful you are today!”
“Not a bit. I’d no other way out of it. One of the two had to be a fool. And, well, you know one
can’t say that of oneself.”
“‘No one is satisfied with his fortune, and everyone is satisfied with his wit.’” The attache repeated
the French saying.
“That’s just it,cheap rs money, just it,” Princess Myakaya turned to him. “But the point is that I won’t abandon
Anna to your mercies. She’s so nice, so charming. How can she help it if they’re all in love with
her, and follow her about like shadows?”
“Oh, I had no idea of blaming her for it,” Anna’s friend said in self-defense.
“If no one follows us about like a shadow, that’s no proof that we’ve any right to blame her.”
And having duly disposed of Anna’s friend, the Princess Myakaya got up, and together with the
ambassador’s wife, joined the group at the table, where the conversation was dealing with the king
of Prussia.
“What wicked gossip were you talking over there?” asked Betsy.
“About the Karenins. The princess gave us a sketch of Alexey Alexandrovitch,” said the
ambassador’s wife with a smile,rose zulie, as she sat down at the table.
“Pity we didn’t hear it!” said Princess Betsy, glancing towards the door. “Ah, here you are at last!”
she said,cheap runescape money, turning with a smile to Vronsky, as he came in.
Vronsky was not merely acquainted with all the persons whom he was meeting here; he saw them
all every day; and so he came in with the quiet manner with which one enters a room full of

ground, and talk about your majolica and engravings. Come now, what treasure have yo been
buying lately at the old curiosity shops?”
“Would you like me to show you? But you don’t understand such things.”
? 103 3 12621 3
“Oh, do show me! I’ve been learning about them at those–what’s their names?…the
bankers…they’ve some splendid engravings. They showed them to us.”
“Why, have you been at the Schuetzburgs?” asked the hostess from the samovar.
“Yes, ma chere. They asked my husband and me to dinner, and told us the sauce at that dinner cost
a hundred pounds,” Princess Myakaya said, speaking loudly,silkroad gold, and conscious everyone was
listening; “and very nasty sauce it was, some green mess. We had to ask them, and I made them
sauce for eighteen pence, and everybody was very much pleased with it. I can’t run to hundred-
pound sauces.”
“She’s unique!” said the lady of the house.
“Marvelous!” said someone.
The sensation produced by Princess Myakaya’s speeches was always unique, and the secret of the
sensation she produced lay in the fact that though she spoke not always appropriately, as now,wow power leveling, she
said simple things with some sense in them. In the society in which she lived such plain statements
produced the effect of the wittiest epigram. Princess Myakaya could never see why it had that
effect, but she knew it had, and took advantage of it.
As everyone had been listening while Princess Myakaya spoke, and so the conversation around
the ambassador’s wife had dropped,buy flyff penya, Princess Betsy tried to bring the whole party together, and
turned to the ambassador’s wife.
“Will you really not have tea? You should come over here by us.”
“No, we’re very happy here,” the ambassador’s wife responded with a smile, and she went on with
the conversation that had been begun.
“It was a very agreeable conversation. They were criticizing the Karenins,rose zulie, husband and wife.
“Anna is quite changed since her stay in Moscow. There’s something strange about her,” said her
friend.
“The great change is that she brought back with her the shadow of Alexey Vronsky,” said the
ambassador’s wife.
“Well, what of it? There’s a fable of Grimm’s about a man without a shadow, a man who’s lost his
shadow. And that’s his punishment for something. I never could understand how it was a

have used that very phrase about Kaulbach to me today already, just as though they had made a
compact about it. And I can’t see why they liked that remark so.”
The conversation was cut short by this observation, and a new subject had to be thought of again.
“Do tell me something amusing but not spiteful,” said the ambassador’s wife, a great proficient in
the art of that elegant conversation called by the English, small talk. She addressed the attache,
who was at a loss now what to begin upon.
“They say that that’s a difficult task, that nothing’s amusing that isn’t spiteful,” he began with a
smile. “But I’ll try. Get me a subject. It all lies in the subject. If a subject’s given me, it’s easy to
spin something round it. I often think that the celebrated talkers of the last century would have
found it difficult to talk cleverly now. Everything clever is so stale…”
“That has been said long ago,” the ambassador’s wife interrupted him, laughing.
The conversation began amiably, but just because it was too amiable, it came to a stop again. They
had to have recourse to the sure,shaiya money, never-failing topic–gossip.
“Don’t you think there’s something Louis Quinze about Tushkevitch?” he said,cheap runescape money, glancing towards a
handsome, fair-haired young man, standing at the table.
“Oh, yes! He’s in the same style as the drawing room and that’s why it is he’s so often here.”
This conversation was maintained, since it rested on allusions to what could not be talked on in
that room–that is to say, of the relations of Tushkevitch with their hostess.
Round the samovar and the hostess the conversation had been meanwhile vacillating in just the
same way between three inevitable topics: the latest piece of public news, the theater, and scandal.
It, too, came finally to rest on the last topic, that is, ill-natured gossip.
“Have you heard the Maltishtcheva woman–the mother, not the daughter–has ordered a costume
in diable rose color?”
“Nonsense! No, that’s too lovely!”
“I wonder that with her sense–for she’s not a fool, you know– that she doesn’t see how funny she
is.”
Everyone had something to say in censure or ridicule of the luckless Madame Maltishtcheva, and
the conversation crackled merrily, like a burning faggot-stack.
The husband of Princess Betsy, a good-natured fat man, an ardent collector of engravings, hearing
that his wife had visitors,cheap rs money, came into the drawing room before going to his club. Stepping
noiselessly over the thick rugs,cheap silkroad online gold, he went up to Princess Myakaya.
“How did you like Nilsson?” he asked.
“Oh, how can you steal upon anyone like that! How you startled me!” she responded. “Please don’t
talk to me about the opera; you know nothing about music. I’d better meet you on your own

And these two influences were not in fact without effect; though the result remained, as Vronsky
had described, uncertain.
On reaching the French theater,buy flyff penya, Vronsky retired to the foyer with the colonel, and reported to him
his success, or non-success. The colonel, thinking it all over, made up his mind not to pursue the
matter further, but then for his own satisfaction proceeded to cross-examine Vronsky about his
interview; and it was a long while before he could restrain his laughter, as Vronsky described how
the government clerk, after subsiding for a while, would suddenly flare up again, as he recalled the
details, and how Vronsky,runescape power leveling, at the last half word of conciliation, skillfully maneuvered a retreat,
shoving Petritsky out before him.
“It’s a disgraceful story, but killing. Kedrov really can’t fight the gentleman! Was he so awfully
hot?” he commented, laughing. “But what do you say to Claire today? She’s marvelous,” he went
on, speaking of a new French actress. “However often you see her, every day she’s different. It’s
only the French who can to that.”
Princess Betsy drove home from the theater, without waiting for the end of the last act. She had
only just time to go into her dressing room, sprinkle her long, pale face with powder, rub it, set her
dress to rights, and order tea in the big drawing room, when one after another carriages drove up
to her huge house in Bolshaia Morskaia. Her guests stepped out at the wide entrance, and the stout
porter, who used to read the newspapers in the mornings behind the glass door, to the edification
of the passers-by, noiselessly opened the immense door, letting the visitors pass by him into the
house.
Almost at the same instant the hostess, with freshly arranged coiffure and freshened face, walked
in at one door and her guests at the other door of the drawing room, a large room with dark walls,
downy rugs, and a brightly lighted table, gleaming with the light of candles, white cloth, silver
samovar, and transparent china tea things.
The hostess sat down at the table and took off her gloves. Chairs were set with the aid of footmen,
moving almost imperceptibly about the room; the party settled itself, divided into two groups: one
round the samovar near the hostess, the other at the opposite end of the drawing room, round the
handsome wife of an ambassador, in black velvet,rs gold, with sharply defined black eyebrows. In both
groups conversation wavered, as it always does, for the first few minutes, broken up by meetings,
greetings, offers of tea,runescape money, and as it were, feeling about for something to rest upon.
“She’s exceptionally good as an actress; one can see she’s studied Kaulbach,” said a diplomatic
attache in the group round the ambassador’s wife. “Did you notice how she fell down?…”
“Oh, please ,don’t let us talk about Nilsson! No one can possibly say anything new about her,” said
a fat, red-faced, flaxen-headed lady, without eyebrows and chignon, wearing an old silk dress.
This was Princess Myakaya, noted for her simplicity and the roughness of her manners, and
nicknamed enfant terrible. Princess Myakaya, sitting in the middle between the two groups, and
listening to both, took part in the conversation first of one and then of the other. “Three people

I have to keep the peace between them. Again I call out all my diplomacy, and again as soon as
the thing was about at an end, our friend the government clerk gets hot and red, and his sausages
stand on end with wrath, and once more I launch out into diplomatic wiles.”
“Ah, he must tell you this story!” said Betsy, laughing, to a lady to came into her box. “He has
been making me laugh so.”
“Well, bonne chance!” she added, giving Vronsky one finger of the hand in which she held her
fan, and with a shrug of her shoulders she twitched down the bodice of her gown that had worked
up, so as to be duly naked as she moved forward towards the footlights into the light of the gas,
and the sight of all eyes.
Vronsky drove to the French theater, where he really had to see the colonel of his regiment,rs money, who
never missed a single performance there. He wanted to see him, to report on the result of his
mediation, which had occupied and amused him for the last three days. Petritsky, whom he liked,
was implicated in the affair, and the other culprit was a capital fellow and first-rate comrade, who
had lately joined the regiment, the young Prince Kedrov. And what was most important, the
interests of the regiment were involved in it too.
Both the young men were in Vronsky’s company. The colonel of the regiment was waited upon by
the government clerk, Venden,cheap flyff money, with a complaint against his officers, who had insulted his wife.
His young wife, so Venden told the story–he had been married half a year–was at church with her
mother, and suddenly overcome by indisposition, arising from her interesting condition, she could
not remain standing, she drove home in the first sledge, a smart-looking one, she came across. On
the spot the officers set off in pursuit of her; she was alarmed, and feeling still more unwell, ran up
the staircase home. Venden himself, on returning from his office, heard a ring at their bell and
voices,cheap rohan crone, went out, and seeing the intoxicated officers with a letter, he had turned them out. He
asked for exemplary punishment.
“Yes, it’s all very well,” said the colonel to Vronsky, whom he had invited to come and see him.
“Petritsky’s becoming impossible. Not a week goes by without some scandal. This government
clerk won’t let it drop, he’ll go on with the thing.”
Vronsky saw all the thanklessness of the business,rs money, and that there could be no question of a duel in
it, that everything must be done to soften the government clerk, and hush the matter up. The
colonel had called in Vronsky just because he knew him to be an honorable and intelligent man,
and, more than all, a man who cared for the honor of the regiment. They talked it over, and
decided that Petritsky and Kedrov must go with Vronsky to Venden’s to apologize. The colonel
and Vronsky were both fully aware that Vronsky’s name and rank would be sure to contribute
greatly to softening of the injured husband’s feelings.

short veil, and exquisite little feet.”
“You describe it with such feeling that I fancy you must be one of the two.”
“And after what you said, just now! Well, the young men go in to their comrade’s; he was giving a
farewell dinner. There they certainly did drink a little too much, as one always does at farewell
dinners. And at dinner they inquire who lives at the top in that house. No one knows; only their
host’s valet, in answer to their inquiry whether any ‘young ladies’ are living on the top floor,
answered that there were a great many of them about there. After dinner the two young men go
into their host’s study, and write a letter to the unknown fair one. They compose an ardent epistle,
a declaration in fact, and they carry the letter upstairs themselves, so as to elucidate whatever
might appear not perfectly intelligible in the letter.”
“Why are you telling me these horrible stories? Well?”
“They ring. A maidservant opens the door, they hand her the letter, and assure the maid that
they’re both so in love that they’ll die on the spot at the door. The maid, stupefied, carries in their
messages. All at once a gentleman appears with whiskers like sausages, as red as a lobster,
announces that there is no one living in the flat except his wife, and sends them both about their
business.”
“How do you know he had whiskers like sausages, as you say?”
“Ah,buy rose online zulie, you shall hear. I’ve just been to make peace between them.”
“Well, and what then?”
“That’s the most interesting part of the story. It appears that it’s a happy couple, a government
clerk and his lady. The government clerk lodges a complaint, and I became a mediator, and such a
mediator!… I assure you Talleyrand couldn’t hold a candle to me.”
“Why, where was the difficulty?”
“Ah, you shall hear…. We apologize in due form: we are in despair, we entreat forgiveness for the
unfortunate misunderstanding. The government clerk with the sausages begins to melt, but he, too,
desires to express his sentiments, and as soon as ever he begins to express them, he begins to get
hot and say nasty things, and again I’m obliged to trot out all my diplomatic talents. I allowed that

then, too, the young men had only just been lunching together. ‘You understand. They regret it
deeply, and beg you to overlook their misbehavior.’ The government clerk was softened once
more. ‘I consent,rohan gold, count,runescape gold, and am ready to overlook it; but you perceive that my wife–my wife’s a
respectable woman –his been exposed to the persecution, and insults, and effrontery of young

of a girl,cheap world of warcraft gold, or of any woman free to marry, might be ridiculous. But the position of a man pursuing a
married woman,buy rs money, and, regardless of everything, staking his life on drawing her into adultery, has
something fine and grand about it, and can never be ridiculous; and so it was with a proud and gay
smile under his mustaches that he lowered the opera glass and looked at his cousin.
“But why was it you didn’t come to dinner?” she said, admiring him.
“I must tell you about that. I was busily employed, and doing what,warcraft gold, do you suppose? I’ll give you a
hundred guesses, a thousand…you’d never guess. I’ve been reconciling a husband with a man
who’d insulted his wife. Yes, really!”
“Well, did you succeed?”
“Almost.”
“You really must tell me about it,” she said, getting up. “Come to me in the next entr’acte.”
“I can’t; I’m going to the French theater.”
“From Nilsson?” Betsy queried in horror, though she could not herself have distinguished
Nilsson’s voice from any chorus girl’s.
“Can’t help it. I’ve an appointment there, all to do with my mission of peace.”
” Blessed are the peacemakers; theirs is the kingdom of heaven,’” said Betsy, vaguely recollecting
she had heard some similar saying from someone. “Very well, then, sit down, and tell me what it’s
all about.”
And she sat down again.
?99 312 621 3
“This is rather indiscreet, but it’s so good it’s an awful temptation to tell the story,” said Vronsky,
looking at her with his laughing eyes. “I’m not going to mention any names.”
“But I shall guess, so much the better.”
“Well, listen: two festive young men were driving-”
“Officers of your regiment, of course?”
“I didn’t say they were officers,–two young men who had been lunching.”
“In other words, drinking.”
“Possibly. They were driving on their way to dinner with a friend in the most festive state of mind.

those meetings. She met Vronsky specially often at Betsy’s for Betsy was a Vronsky by birth and
his cousin. Vronsky was everywhere where he had any chance of meeting Anna, and speaking to
her, when he could, of his love. She gave him no encouragement, but every time she met him there
surged up in her heart that same feeling of quickened life that had come upon her that day in the
railway carriage when she saw him for the first time. She was conscious herself that her delight
sparkled in her eyes and curved her lips into a smile, and she could not quench the expression of
this delight.
At first Anna sincerely believed that she was displeased with him for daring to pursue her. Soon
after her return from Moscow, on arriving at a soiree where she had expected to meet him, and not
finding him there, she realized distinctly from the rush of disappointment that she had been
deceiving herself, and that this pursuit was not merely not distasteful to her, but that it made the
whole interest of her life.
A celebrated singer was singing for the second time, and all the fashionable world was in the
theater. Vronsky, seeing his cousin from his stall in the front row, did not wait till the entr’acte, but
went to her box.
?98 312 621 3
“Why didn’t you come to dinner?” she said to him. “I marvel at the second sight of lovers,” she
added with a smile, so that no one but he could hear; “SHE WASN’T THERE. But come after the
opera.”
Vronsky looked inquiringly at her. She nodded. He thanked her by a smile, and sat down beside
her.
“But how I remember your jeers!” continued Princess Betsy, who took a peculiar pleasure in
following up this passion to a successful issue. “What’s become of all that? You’re caught,cheap rappelz gold, my dear
boy.”
“That’s my one desire, to be caught,buy flyff penya,” answered Vronsky, with his serene, good-humored smile. “If
I complain of anything it’s only that I’m not caught enough, to tell the truth. I begin to lose hope.”
“Why, whatever hope can you have?” said Betsy, offended on behalf of her friend. “Enendons
nous….” But in her eyes there were gleams of light that betrayed that she understood perfectly and
precisely as he did what hope he might have.
“None whatever,” said Vronsky,rohan gold, laughing and showing his even rows of teeth. “Excuse me,” he
added, taking an opera glass out of her hand,flyff money, and proceeding to scrutinize, over her bare shoulder,
the row of boxes facing them. “I’m afraid I’m becoming ridiculous.”
He was very well aware that he ran no risk of being ridiculous in the eyes of Betsy or any other
fashionable people. He was very well aware that in their eyes the position of an unsuccessful lover

friends and close ties in three different circles of this highest society. One circle was her husband’s
government official set, consisting of his colleagues and subordinates, brought together in the
most various and capricious manner,runescape power leveling, and belonging to different social strata. Anna found it
difficult now to recall the feeling of almost awe-stricken reverence which she had at first
entertained for these persons. Now she knew all of them as people know one another in a country
town; she knew their habits and weaknesses, and where the shoe pinched each one of them. She
knew their relations with one another and with the head authorities, knew who was for whom, and
?97 312 621 3
how each one maintained his position, and where they agreed and disagreed. But the circle of
political, masculine interests had never interested her,runescape money, in spite of countess Kidia Ivanovna’s
influence, and she avoided it.
Another little set with which Anna was in close relations was the one by means of which Alexey
Alexandrovitch had made his career. The center of this circle was the Countess Lidia Ivanovna. It
was a set made up of elderly, ugly, benevolent,flyff money, and godly women, and clever, learned, and
ambitious men. One of the clever people belonging to the set had called it “the conscience of
Petersburg society.” Alexey Alexandrovitch had the highest esteem for this circle, and Anna with
her special gift for getting on with everyone, had in the early days of her life in Petersburg made
friends in this circle also. Now, since her return from Moscow, she had come to feel this set
insufferable. It seemed to her that both she and all of them were insincere, and she fell so bored
and ill at ease in that world that she went to see the Countess Lidia Ivanovna as little as possible.
The third circle with which Anna had ties was preeminently the fashionable world–the world of
balls, of dinners, of sumptuous dresses, the world that hung on to the court with one hand, so as to
avoid sinking to the level of the demi-monde. For the demi-monde the members of that
fashionable world believed that they despised, though their tastes were not merely similar, but in
fact identical. Her connection with this circle was kept up through Princess Betsy Tverskaya, her
cousin’s wife,rose zulie, who had an income of a hundred and twenty thousand roubles, and who had taken a
great fancy to Anna ever since she first came out, showed her much attention, and drew her into
her set, making fun of Countess Kidia Ivanovna’s coterie.
“When I’m old and ugly I’ll be the same,” Betsy used to say; “but for a pretty young woman like
you it’s early days for that house of charity.”
Anna had at first avoided as far as she could Princess Tverskaya’s world, because it necessitated
an expenditure beyond her means, and besides in her heart she preferred the first circle. But since
her visit to Moscow she had done quite the contrary. She avoided her serious-minded friends, and
went out into the fashionable world. There she met Vronsky, and experienced an agitating joy at
