My shoes!

Five minutes. He'll be getting to the station.

Now he's getting his ticket.

He's reading it.

The train isn't signaled. Pray God it's late.

Pray God.

Misha, Misha.

- Misha! What...?

- (Panting) Excellency.

A letter from her ladyship, excellency.

She sent me after you on the horse.

Oh, the snow! You can't see!

lt's a mercy of God l kept on the road.

Shall l get the coachman to turn round

the barouche, excellency?

(Train approaching)

Clumsy Annushka, hurry.

His lordship will be here.

All this misery for a man.

There's no sense in it.

- (Bells jangling)

- The carriage! Quickly, go and see.

(lndistinct chatter)

The coachman says he saw Misha

talking to his lordship, but...

as nobody gave him any orders

he came straight back.

- My lady...

- lt's nothing.

My coat and muff. l have to go out.

Excellency, you'll lose yourself

in the dark and the snow.

And suppose his lordship

doesn't find you at home?

- Wait a little while.

- Wait? What for? He won't come back.

Where will you go?

To the station. Where should l go?

Alexis...

Colonel Vronsky is taking me to Moscow.

- l'll come with you. l'll tell the coachman.

- No, wait here.

Kiss me.

No.

- Goodbye, Annushka.

- Goodbye...

Silly of me, l meant...l must go out.

l shall go across the fields. Don't be anxious,

the air will do me good. Feel, l'm burning.

Get my coat, Annushka.

Oh, yes.

That's everything.

Excellency!

- l was waiting for the snow to stop.

- You saw his lordship, gave him the letter?

- Yes.

- And?

There was nothing, excellency.

Nothing?

- You can go.

- Very well, excellency.

(Anna ) God forgive me, God forgive me,

God forgive me,

God forgive me, God forgive me,,,
