Then
he
went
up
to
the
prince
,
seized
both
his
hands
,
shook
them
warmly
,
and
declared
that
he
had
at
first
felt
hostile
towards
the
project
of
this
marriage
,
and
had
openly
said
so
in
the
billiard-rooms
,
but
that
the
reason
simply
was
that
,
with
the
impatience
of
a
friend
,
he
had
hoped
to
see
the
prince
marry
at
least
a
Princess
de
Rohan
or
de
Chabot
;
but
that
now
he
saw
that
the
prince
's
way
of
thinking
was
ten
times
more
noble
than
that
of
"
all
the
rest
put
together
.
"
For
he
desired
neither
pomp
nor
wealth
nor
honour
,
but
only
the
truth
!
The
sympathies
of
exalted
personages
were
well
known
,
and
the
prince
was
too
highly
placed
by
his
education
,
and
so
on
,
not
to
be
in
some
sense
an
exalted
personage
!
"
But
all
the
common
herd
judge
differently
;
in
the
town
,
at
the
meetings
,
in
the
villas
,
at
the
band
,
in
the
inns
and
the
billiard-rooms
,
the
coming
event
has
only
to
be
mentioned
and
there
are
shouts
and
cries
from
everybody
.
I
have
even
heard
talk
of
getting
up
a
'
charivari
'
under
the
windows
on
the
wedding-night
.
So
if
'
you
have
need
of
the
pistol
'
of
an
honest
man
,
prince
,
I
am
ready
to
fire
half
a
dozen
shots
even
before
you
rise
from
your
nuptial
couch
!
"
Keller
also
advised
,
in
anticipation
of
the
crowd
making
a
rush
after
the
ceremony
,
that
a
fire-hose
should
be
placed
at
the
entrance
to
the
house
;
but
Lebedeff
was
opposed
to
this
measure
,
which
he
said
might
result
in
the
place
being
pulled
down
.

"
I
assure
you
,
prince
,
that
Lebedeff
is
intriguing
against
you
.
He
wants
to
put
you
under
control
.
Imagine
that
!
To
take
'
from
you
the
use
of
your
free-will
and
your
money
'
--
that
is
to
say
,
the
two
things
that
distinguish
us
from
the
animals
!
I
have
heard
it
said
positively
.
It
is
the
sober
truth
.
"
The
prince
recollected
that
somebody
had
told
him
something
of
the
kind
before
,
and
he
had
,
of
course
,
scoffed
at
it
.
He
only
laughed
now
,
and
forgot
the
hint
at
once
.
Lebedeff
really
had
been
busy
for
some
little
while
;
but
,
as
usual
,
his
plans
had
become
too
complex
to
succeed
,
through
sheer
excess
of
ardour
.
When
he
came
to
the
prince
--
the
very
day
before
the
wedding
--
to
confess
(
for
he
always
confessed
to
the
persons
against
whom
he
intrigued
,
especially
when
the
plan
failed
)
,
he
informed
our
hero
that
he
himself
was
a
born
Talleyrand
,
but
for
some
unknown
reason
had
become
simple
Lebedeff
.
He
then
proceeded
to
explain
his
whole
game
to
the
prince
,
interesting
the
latter
exceedingly
.
According
to
Lebedeff
's
account
,
he
had
first
tried
what
he
could
do
with
General
Epanchin
.
The
latter
informed
him
that
he
wished
well
to
the
unfortunate
young
man
,
and
would
gladly
do
what
he
could
to
"
save
him
,
"
but
that
he
did
not
think
it
would
be
seemly
for
him
to
interfere
in
this
matter
.
Lizabetha
Prokofievna
would
neither
hear
nor
see
him
.
Prince
S.
and
Evgenie
Pavlovitch
only
shrugged
their
shoulders
,
and
implied
that
it
was
no
business
of
theirs
.

However
,
Lebedeff
had
not
lost
heart
,
and
went
off
to
a
clever
lawyer
,
--
a
worthy
and
respectable
man
,
whom
he
knew
well
.
This
old
gentleman
informed
him
that
the
thing
was
perfectly
feasible
if
he
could
get
hold
of
competent
witnesses
as
to
Muishkin
's
mental
incapacity
.
Then
,
with
the
assistance
of
a
few
influential
persons
,
he
would
soon
see
the
matter
arranged
.
Lebedeff
immediately
procured
the
services
of
an
old
doctor
,
and
carried
the
latter
away
to
Pavlofsk
to
see
the
prince
,
by
way
of
viewing
the
ground
,
as
it
were
,
and
to
give
him
(
Lebedeff
)
counsel
as
to
whether
the
thing
was
to
be
done
or
not
.
The
visit
was
not
to
be
official
,
but
merely
friendly
.
Muishkin
remembered
the
doctor
's
visit
quite
well
.
He
remembered
that
Lebedeff
had
said
that
he
looked
ill
,
and
had
better
see
a
doctor
;
and
although
the
prince
scouted
the
idea
,
Lebedeff
had
turned
up
almost
immediately
with
his
old
friend
,
explaining
that
they
had
just
met
at
the
bedside
of
Hippolyte
,
who
was
very
ill
,
and
that
the
doctor
had
something
to
tell
the
prince
about
the
sick
man
.
