I still fancied in Moscow, though, that I was\ncoming to try to get Avdotya Romanovna's hand and to cur\nout Mr. Luzhin.\"\n\"Excuse me for interrupting you; kindly be brief, and come\nto the object of your visit. I am in a hurry, I want to go\nout. . . .\"\n\"With the greatest pleasure. On arriving here and determin-\ning on a certain . . . journey, I should like to make some neces-\nsary preliminary arrangements. I left my children with an aunt;\nthey are well provided for; and they have no need of me person-\nally. And a nice father I should make, too!

If Avdotya Romanovna\ndoes not accept it, I shall waste it in some more foolish way.\nThat's the first thing. Secondly, my conscience is perfectly easy;\nI make the offer with no ulterior motive. You may not believe it,\nbut in the end Avdotya Romanovna and you will know.
