Anna Pavlovna Scherer on the contrary, despite her forty years, overflowed with animation and impulsiveness.

Anna Pavlovna's drawing room was gradually filling.

Anna Pavlovna greeted him with the nod she accorded to the lowest hierarchy in her drawing room.

Anna Pavlovna's alarm was justified, for Pierre turned away from the aunt without waiting to hear her speech about Her Majesty's health.

The third group was gathered round Mortemart and Anna Pavlovna.

Anna Pavlovna was obviously serving him up as a treat to her guests.

Anna Pavlovna arranged a group round him, inviting everyone to listen to his tale.

From time to time she smoothed the folds of her dress, and whenever the story produced an effect she glanced at Anna Pavlovna, at once adopted just the expression she saw on the maid of honor's face, and again relapsed into her radiant smile.

Both were talking and listening too eagerly and too naturally, which was why Anna Pavlovna disapproved.

At that moment Anna Pavlovna came up and, looking severely at Pierre, asked the Italian how he stood Russian climate.

In the first moment of Pierre's outburst Anna Pavlovna, despite her social experience, was horror-struck.

Having thanked Anna Pavlovna for her charming soiree, the guests began to take their leave.

And everyone, including Anna Pavlovna, felt this.

Anna Mikhaylovna looked at Vera and paused.

And my affairs are in such a bad way that my position is now a terrible one, continued Anna Mikhaylovna, sadly, dropping her voice.

And like a practical Petersburg lady who knows how to make the most of time, Anna Mikhaylovna sent someone to call her son, and went into the anteroom with him.

Seeing Anna Mikhaylovna and her son, Prince Vasili dismissed the doctor with a bow and approached them silently and with a look of inquiry.

When Anna Mikhaylovna returned from Count Bezukhov's the money, all in clean notes, was lying ready under a handkerchief on the countess' little table, and Anna Mikhaylovna noticed that something was agitating her.

Anna Mikhaylovna instantly guessed her intention and stooped to be ready to embrace the countess at the appropriate moment.

Anna Mikhaylovna was already embracing her and weeping.

The countess exchanged glances with Anna Mikhaylovna.

At one end of the table sat the countess with Marya Dmitrievna on her right and Anna Mikhaylovna on her left, the other lady visitors were farther down.

As the wheels rolled softly over the straw beneath the windows, Anna Mikhaylovna, having turned with words of comfort to her companion, realized that he was asleep in his corner and woke him up.

Rousing himself, Pierre followed Anna Mikhaylovna out of the carriage, and only then began to think of the interview with his dying father which awaited him.

But neither Anna Mikhaylovna nor the footman nor the coachman, who could not help seeing these people, took any notice of them.

These men pressed close to the wall to let Pierre and Anna Mikhaylovna pass and did not evince the least surprise at seeing them there.

Anna Mikhaylovna paused and waited for him to come up.

Pierre did not understand a word, but the conviction that all this had to be grew stronger, and he meekly followed Anna Mikhaylovna who was already opening a door.

Anna Mikhaylovna, addressing a maid who was hurrying past with a decanter on a tray as "my dear" and "my sweet," asked about the princess' health and then led Pierre along a stone passage.

Anna Mikhaylovna evinced no surprise, she only smiled faintly and sighed, as if to say that this was no more than she had expected.

All became silent and turned to look at the pale tear-worn Anna Mikhaylovna as she entered, and at the big stout figure of Pierre who, hanging his head, meekly followed her.

Anna Mikhaylovna with just the same movement raised her shoulders and eyes, almost closing the latter, sighed, and moved away from the doctor to Pierre.

As soon as Anna Mikhaylovna had disappeared he noticed that the eyes of all in the room turned to him with something more than curiosity and sympathy.

Anna Mikhaylovna, with a meek, sorrowful, and all-forgiving expression on her face, stood by the door near the strange lady.

Anna Mikhaylovna stepped forward and, stooping over the dying man, beckoned to Lorrain from behind her back.

Anna Mikhaylovna touched Pierre's hand and said, "Come."

Anna Mikhaylovna made a hurried sign with her eyes, glancing at the sick man's hand and moving her lips as if to send it a kiss.

Once more Pierre looked questioningly at Anna Mikhaylovna to see what he was to do next.

Anna Mikhaylovna with her eyes indicated a chair that stood beside the bed.

Anna Mikhaylovna nodded approvingly.

Anna Mikhaylovna looked attentively at the sick man's eyes, trying to guess what he wanted; she pointed first to Pierre, then to some drink, then named Prince Vasili in an inquiring whisper, then pointed to the quilt.

Go and take something, my poor Anna Mikhaylovna, or you will not hold out.

Pierre went with Anna Mikhaylovna into the small drawing room.

Anna Mikhaylovna was standing beside the princess, and they were both speaking in excited whispers.

Come, my dear Anna Mikhaylovna, let Catiche do as she pleases.

She tried to pass Anna Mikhaylovna, but the latter sprang so as to bar her path.

Their efforts in the struggle for the portfolio were the only sounds audible, but it was evident that if the princess did speak, her words would not be flattering to Anna Mikhaylovna.

But Anna Mikhaylovna went forward a step or two to keep her hold on the portfolio, and changed her grip.

But Anna Mikhaylovna did not obey him.

Anna Mikhaylovna, stooping, quickly caught up the object of contention and ran into the bedroom.

Anna Mikhaylovna came out last.

Anna Mikhaylovna left him, and when she returned he was fast asleep with his head on his arm.

Pierre understood nothing of all this and coloring shyly looked in silence at Princess Anna Mikhaylovna.

After her talk with Pierre, Anna Mikhaylovna returned to the Rostovs' and went to bed.

Like the others, Anna Pavlovna Scherer showed Pierre the change of attitude toward him that had taken place in society.

Formerly in Anna Pavlovna's presence, Pierre had always felt that what he was saying was out of place, tactless and unsuitable, that remarks which seemed to him clever while they formed in his mind became foolish as soon as he uttered them, while on the contrary Hippolyte's stupidest remarks came out clever and apt.

Even if Anna Pavlovna did not say so, he could see that she wished to and only refrained out of regard for his modesty.

Anna Pavlovna arranged the different groups in her drawing room with her habitual skill.

The beauty went to the aunt, but Anna Pavlovna detained Pierre, looking as if she had to give some final necessary instructions.

I only wanted to know your opinion, and Anna Pavlovna let Pierre go.

The old aunt received the two young people in her corner, but seemed desirous of hiding her adoration for Helene and inclined rather to show her fear of Anna Pavlovna.

Pierre was one of those who are only strong when they feel themselves quite innocent, and since that day when he was overpowered by a feeling of desire while stooping over the snuffbox at Anna Pavlovna's, an unacknowledged sense of the guilt of that desire paralyzed his will.

On either side of her sat the more important guests--an old general and his wife, and Anna Pavlovna Scherer.

Anna Pavlovna threatened him on behalf of "our dear Vyazmitinov," and in her eyes, which, for an instant, glanced at Pierre, Prince Vasili read a congratulation on his future son-in-law and on his daughter's happiness.

Anna Mikhaylovna, who always knew everything that passed in the house, on hearing of the arrival of the letter went softly into the room and found the count with it in his hand, sobbing and laughing at the same time.

Anna Mikhaylovna, though her circumstances had improved, was still living with the Rostovs.

Anna Mikhaylovna sat down beside him, with her own handkerchief wiped the tears from his eyes and from the letter, then having dried her own eyes she comforted the count, and decided that at dinner and till teatime she would prepare the countess, and after tea, with God's help, would inform her.

Each time that these hints began to make the countess anxious and she glanced uneasily at the count and at Anna Mikhaylovna, the latter very adroitly turned the conversation to insignificant matters.

After dinner, she rushed head long after Anna Mikhaylovna and, dashing at her, flung herself on her neck as soon as she overtook her in the sitting room.

Anna Mikhaylovna shook her head.

I'm sure of it! exclaimed Natasha, reading confirmation in Anna Mikhaylovna's face.

Anna Mikhaylovna, in a few words, told her the contents of the letter, on condition that she should tell no one.

Anna Mikhaylovna, with the letter, came on tiptoe to the countess' door and paused.

At first he heard the sound of indifferent voices, then Anna Mikhaylovna's voice alone in a long speech, then a cry, then silence, then both voices together with glad intonations, and then footsteps.

Anna Mikhaylovna opened the door.

Anna Mikhaylovna, practical woman that she was, had even managed by favor with army authorities to secure advantageous means of communication for herself and her son.

Sonya, Natasha, Petya, Anna Mikhaylovna, Vera, and the old count were all hugging him, and the serfs, men and maids, flocked into the room, exclaiming and oh-ing and ah-ing.

The count was delighted at Anna Mikhaylovna's taking upon herself one of his commissions and ordered the small closed carriage for her.

Anna Mikhaylovna turned up her eyes, and profound sadness was depicted on her face.

Anna Mikhaylovna sighed deeply.

On his right sat the Italian abbe whom Pierre had met at Anna Pavlovna's two years before.

The novelty Anna Pavlovna was setting before her guests that evening was Boris Drubetskoy, who had just arrived as a special messenger from the Prussian army and was aide-de-camp to a very important personage.

Anna Pavlovna gave him her shriveled hand to kiss and introduced him to several persons whom he did not know, giving him a whispered description of each.

Thanks to Anna Mikhaylovna's efforts, his own tastes, and the peculiarities of his reserved nature, Boris had managed during his service to place himself very advantageously.

To be in Anna Pavlovna's drawing room he considered an important step up in the service, and he at once understood his role, letting his hostess make use of whatever interest he had to offer.

After that Anna Pavlovna led up to the courage and firmness of the King of Prussia, in order to draw Boris into the conversation.

Speaking of the position of Prussia, Anna Pavlovna very naturally asked Boris to tell them about his journey to Glogau and in what state he found the Prussian army.

For some time he engrossed the general attention, and Anna Pavlovna felt that the novelty she had served up was received with pleasure by all her visitors.

When Boris and Anna Pavlovna returned to the others Prince Hippolyte had the ear of the company.

Anna Pavlovna waited for him to go on, but as he seemed quite decided to say no more she began to tell of how at Potsdam the impious Bonaparte had stolen the sword of Frederick the Great.

Anna Mikhaylovna also had of late visited them less frequently, seemed to hold herself with particular dignity, and always spoke rapturously and gratefully of the merits of her son and the brilliant career on which he had entered.

But once the countess called her son and informed him that she had a promissory note from Anna Mikhaylovna for two thousand rubles, and asked him what he thought of doing with it.

Well, I don't like Anna Mikhaylovna and I don't like Boris, but they were our friends and poor.

Anna Mikhaylovna, who often visited the Karagins, while playing cards with the mother made careful inquiries as to Julie's dowry (she was to have two estates in Penza and the Nizhegorod forests).

Anna Mikhaylovna regarded the refined sadness that united her son to the wealthy Julie with emotion, and resignation to the Divine will.

The sniveling Anna Mikhaylovna?

If you'll allow me to leave my Natasha in your hands for a quarter of an hour, Princess, I'll drive round to see Anna Semenovna, it's quite near in the Dogs' Square, and then I'll come back for her.

The princess told the count that she would be delighted, and only begged him to stay longer at Anna Semenovna's, and he departed.

Look at our Anna Mikhaylovna--what a headdress she has on!

Behind them sat Anna Mikhaylovna wearing a green headdress and with a happy look of resignation to the will of God on her face.

On the ninth of August Prince Vasili at Anna Pavlovna's again met the "man of great merit."

The latter was very attentive to Anna Pavlovna because he wanted to be appointed director of one of the educational establishments for young ladies.

God grant it! said Anna Pavlovna.

As soon as he said this both Prince Vasili and Anna Pavlovna turned away from him and glanced sadly at one another with a sigh at his naivete.

Berg, the Rostovs' son-in-law, was already a colonel wearing the orders of Vladimir and Anna, and he still filled the quiet and agreeable post of assistant to the head of the staff of the assistant commander of the first division of the Second Army.

At Anna Pavlovna's on the twenty-sixth of August, the very day of the battle of Borodino, there was a soiree, the chief feature of which was to be the reading of a letter from His Lordship the Bishop when sending the Emperor an icon of the Venerable Sergius.

This reading, as was always the case at Anna Pavlovna's soirees, had a political significance.

They all knew very well that the enchanting countess' illness arose from an inconvenience resulting from marrying two husbands at the same time, and that the Italian's cure consisted in removing such inconvenience; but in Anna Pavlovna's presence no one dared to think of this or even appear to know it.

She is very unfortunate! added Anna Pavlovna.

What's that? asked Anna Pavlovna, securing silence for the mot, which she had heard before.

Animated by that address Anna Pavlovna's guests talked for a long time of the state of the fatherland and offered various conjectures as to the result of the battle to be fought in a few days.

Anna Pavlovna's presentiment was in fact fulfilled.

Anna Pavlovna's presentiment was justified, and all that morning a joyously festive mood reigned in the city.

The princess seemed to see nothing more extraordinary in that than if he had seen Anna Semenovna.

This meant two stockings, which by a secret process known only to herself Anna Makarovna used to knit at the same time on the same needles, and which, when they were ready, she always triumphantly drew, one out of the other, in the children's presence.
