Irena: You know, when I woke up this morning, and after I'd got up and	
       washed, it suddenly felt as if everything in the world had become	
       clear to me, and I knew the way I ought to live.	


         ஡,   .

       I know it all now, my dear Ivan Romanych.

       Man must work by the sweat of his brow whatever his class, and that
       should make up the whole meaning and purpose of his life and	
       happiness and contentment.

       Oh, how good it must be to be a workman, getting up with the sun and
       breaking stones by the roadside - or a shepherd - or a schoolmaster	
       teaching the children - or an engine-driver on the railway.

       Good Heavens! it's better to be a mere ox or horse, and work, than
       the sort of young woman who wakes up at twelve, and drinks her coffee	
       in bed, and then takes two hours dressing, ...	


       ,   娡!

       How dreadful!


          䡬 थ  ,   䦭 ⡢.

       You know how you long for a cool drink in hot weather? Well, that's
       the way I long for work.



        㭪    ⡯ 䡣  奪,  䬡   ꦫ
       娢,  ஡.	

       And if I don't get up early from now on and really work, you can
       refuse to be friends with me any more, Ivan Romanych.
