— Jos luulet, että hän aikoo käyttää näitä merkkejä ja tahtoo tulla
sisälle, niin älä päästä häntä.
— Äh, piru vieköön! Miten sinä olet niin varma siitä, että
kaatuvatauti tulee, hitto sinut vieköön? Pidätkö sinä minua pilkkanasi
vai?
— Äh, hitto! Jos sinä makaat sairaana, niin Grigori vahtii. Ilmoita
edeltäpäin Grigorille, tämä ei päästä häntä.
— Miksi hän tulisi isän luo ja vielä salaa, jos, kuten sinä itse sanot,
Agrafena Aleksandrovna ei ensinkään tulekaan, — jatkoi Ivan
Fjodorovitš vihasta kalveten. — Itsehän sinä sanot sitä ja olet kaiken
aikaa täällä asuvana ollut vakuutettu siitä, että ukko vain kuvittelee ja
että hänen luokseen ei tule tuo elukka. Miksi Dmitri tunkeutuisi ukon
luo, jos tuo ei tule? Puhu! Minä tahdon tietää sinun ajatuksesi.
