Anna Karenina Page #2

---

Oh, my God! Why did this have|to happen?

For whose benefit do you intend|the 200 rubles?

The widow. Whom did you think?

This is a bad omen.

Nonsense, my dear.|You're here, that's the main thing.

You can't imagine|how much l'm counting on you.

Have you known Vronsky for long?

He is a capital fellow, rich,|has a brilliant future.

We hope he will marry|Kitty Shcherbatsky.

Now tell me all about you.

I can't possibly leave him.|There're the children... l'm tied...

I understand, Dolly.

He doesn't realize the awfulness|of my situation. He seems contented.

Oh no, he's to be pitied,|he's full of remorse.

Is he capable of remorse?|She's young, she's pretty.

They certainly talked about me.

Or, worse still, they didn't talk|about me at all!

The awful thing is that everything's|changed in my heart.

Instead of love and tenderness|I feel nothing but hatred.

I could kill him!

What am I to do, Anna?|Think for me, help me.

l've thought it all over|and see no way out.

- Could you forgive him?|- I don't know.

But still, Dolly, I think,|l'd forgive him.

I could never feel the same again,

but l'd still forgive him|as though nothing had happened.

Oh, darling, l'm so happy|you've come.

Of course, if I do forgive him...

I would have to do it completely,|as if nothing had happened.

Completely.

Go now and may God help you.

Kitty! Kitty, be careful!

Konstantin Dmitrievich, you here?|How do you happen to be here?

Thank you.

I came not long ago.

I was looking for you.|I wanted to call on you.

I didn't know|you skated so well.

- You're considered the best skater.|- I used to skate with a passion.

You do everything with a passion,|don't you?

I would like to see you skating.

With you I would have learned that|faster. I have confidence in you.

My own confidence grows|when you lean on me.

It must be dull in the country|in the winter?

Oh no! I have a lot to do.

- How long are you staying?|- I don't know.

I don't know.|It depends on you.

- On me?|- Yes, on you.

I... I came to...

I came to ask you...|I was looking for you.

No... No, it's impossible.

It couldn't be... I knew it.

No, no... l'm sorry.

You have a lovely sister, Dolly.

What's that?

I brought my ball dress|to show you.

- And when is this ball?|- Next week.

It's one of those balls|where everyone feels so gay.

- Are there such balls?|- Certainly. Are you coming?

You're looking forward to it so much|that you want everyone to be there.

I want you to be there.|I see you dressed in lilac.

Why must it be lilac?

What a happy time of life!

I remember so well that blue mist|that envelops everything.

Childhood is coming to an end, and|the path leading from that vast circle
