When Princess Mary came down, Prince Vasili and his son were

already in the drawing room, talking to the little princess and

Mademoiselle Bourienne. When she entered with her heavy step,

treading on her heels, the gentlemen and Mademoiselle Bourienne

rose and the little princess, indicating her to the gentlemen,

said: "Voila Marie!" Princess Mary saw them all and saw them in

detail. She saw Prince Vasili's face, serious for an instant at

the sight of her, but immediately smiling again, and the little

princess curiously noting the impression "Marie" produced on the

visitors. And she saw Mademoiselle Bourienne, with her ribbon and

pretty face, and her unusually animated look which was fixed on

him, but him she could not see, she only saw something large,

brilliant, and handsome moving toward her as she entered the

room.
