Anna Pavlovna's reception was in full swing. The spindles hummed

steadily and ceaselessly on all sides. With the exception of the

aunt, beside whom sat only one elderly lady, who with her thin

rosy, though rather too plump for her age. The third group was

gathered round Mortemart and Anna Pavlovna.
