You love her just as much, but still, in a short time you will leave that lady in haste, and what is more, you will not feel tranquil until you have put three great rivers between you and her. She will cry bitterly when you leave her and yet be very glad of the separation.����You astonish me!�� said the Baronne, when the affair was explained to her; ��for at St. Petersburg we were told about it by one of your countrymen, M.
