Example text

His mustaches twitched voluptuously, and there was an eager light in his eyes. He felt splendid, whistled through his teeth, drew in deep breaths of the damp sea air, looked about him in the darkness, and smiled good-naturedly when his eyes rested on Gavrila. The wind blew up and waked the sea into a sudden play of fine ripples. The clouds had become, as it were, finer and more transparent, but the sky was still covered with them. The wind, though still light, blew freely over the sea, yet the clouds were motionless and seemed plunged in some gray, dreary reverie.

Don’t be ashamed of having nearly killed a man! On account of people like me, no one will punish you. They’ll say thank you, in­ deed, when they know of it. ” Gavrila saw that Chelkash was laughing, and he felt relieved. He crushed the notes up tight in his hand. “Brother! You forgive me? W on’t you? ” he asked tearfully. ” Chelkash mimicked him as he got, reeling, on to his legs. “What for? There’s nothing to forgive. ” Gavrila sighed mournfully, shak­ ing his head. Chelkash stood facing him, he smiled strangely, and the rag on his head, growing gradually redder, began to "look like a Turkish fez.

The eating-house roared with drunken clamor. The red­ headed sailor was asleep, with his elbows on the table. ” said Chelkash, getting up. Gavrila tried' to get up, but could not, and with a vigor­ ous oath, he laughed a meaningless, drunken laugh. ” said Chelkash, sitting down again op­ posite him. Gavrila still guffawed, staring with dull eyes at his new employer. And the latter gazed at him intently, vigilantly and thoughtfully. He saw before him a man whose life had fallen into his wolfish clutches.
