What do you think?

Let's get our things and set out.

Before Theophanes may change his mind.

- I'm not going.

- What do you mean?

- What am I to do without you?

- Do as you like.

I thought we'd go together.

Why were you thinking for me?

I was not invited.

I can't go without you.

You can!

You said 'yes' without asking me.

You were too quick to agree.

Theophanes had only to beckon.

Never mind, though.

You're not the first

and you won't be the last.

I've got a lot of work here

even without you.

Very well, then!

Foma! Alexei! Come on!

Pyotr! Get ready!

You're going with me.

Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth;

and let thy heart cheer thee

in the days of thy youth.

And walk in the ways of thine heart,

and in the sight of thine eyes.

But know though, that for all these

things

God will bring thee into judgement.

Remember now thy Creator

in the days of thy youth,

while the evil days come not,

nor the years draw nigh,

when thou shalt say,

I have no pleasure in them.

Or ever the silver cord

be loosed,

or the golden bowl be broken,

or the pitcher be broken

at the fountain,

or the wheel be broken

at the cistern.

Then shall the dust return

to the earth as it was:

and the spirit shall return unto God

who gave it.

Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher;

All is vanity.

Kirill!

Have you seen Father Nikodim?

Where could he go so early

in the morning?

He took my mittens

and vanished into thin air.

I have to sort out firewood,

and the logs are ice-cold.

Why do you keep the torch on?

It's morning already.

Did you feed my dog?

You didn't ask me to, did you?

What's the matter?

Go...

Have you forgotten something?

I came to say goodbye.

You already did.

I came to say goodbye, but...

I was feeling pretty bad as it was.

And to make it worse, the devil has

brought about this enmity between us.

I can't leave like that.

I need to confess.

Will you hear it out?

I won't be able to do anything,

Danila.

We've lived in the same cell

for years.

I have nobody but you.

I see the world with your eyes.

I listen with your ears.

With your heart...

I'm happy for you,

you silly man.

You can't imagine how glad I am.

Go to Moscow, paint,

and I'll be proud of you.

The devil tripped me up yesterday

also.

Forgive me, too.

I'll be back, Danila.

Where are you going?

What about the vespers?

You'll serve it without me,

and I'll do without you.

What's the matter with you, Kirill?

I'm tired of it. Tired of lying!

I'm going in the world.

Why did we leave the Trinity?

Why don't you say it?

Because our brothers put their

interests above faith.

And here again? We thought we'd

be serving God by our faith and work,
