[A pause.]

SEREBRYAKOV : In the morning would you find Batyushkov1 in the library. I think we have him.

YELENA ANDREYEVNA : What?

SEREBRYAKOV : Find the Batyushkov in the morning. I remember, we did have him. But why do I find it so hard to breathe?

YELENA ANDREYEVNA : You’re tired. It’s the second night you haven’t slept.

SEREBRYAKOV : They say Turgenev2 developed angina from gout. I’m afraid that might happen to me. Cursed and disgusting old age. To hell with it. When I got old, I became repulsive to myself. And all of you must find me repulsive to look at.

YELENA ANDREYEVNA : When you speak of your age your tone is as if we were all to blame for your being old.

SEREBRYAKOV : You are the first to find me repulsive.
