"And I will tell you this," Prince Andrew interrupted in a tone

of quiet authority, "you wish to insult me, and I am ready to

agree with you that it would be very easy to do so if you haven't

sufficient self-respect, but admit that the time and place are

very badly chosen. In a day or two we shall all have to take part

in a greater and more serious duel, and besides, Drubetskoy, who

says he is an old friend of yours, is not at all to blame that my

face has the misfortune to displease you. However," he added

rising, "you know my name and where to find me, but don't forget

that I do not regard either myself or you as having been at all

insulted, and as a man older than you, my advice is to let the

matter drop. Well then, on Friday after the review I shall expect

you, Drubetskoy. Au revoir!" exclaimed Prince Andrew, and with a

bow to them both he went out.
