said
the
countess
,
raising
her
eyes
from
her
letter
as
her
niece
passed
,
"
Sónya
,
wo
n't
you
write
to
Nicholas
?
"
She
spoke
in
a
soft
,
tremulous
voice
,
and
in
the
weary
eyes
that
looked
over
her
spectacles
Sónya
read
all
that
the
countess
meant
to
convey
with
these
words
.
Those
eyes
expressed
entreaty
,
shame
at
having
to
ask
,
fear
of
a
refusal
,
and
readiness
for
relentless
hatred
in
case
of
such
refusal
.
Sónya
went
up
to
the
countess
and
,
kneeling
down
,
kissed
her
hand
.
"
Yes
,
Mamma
,
I
will
write
,
"
said
she
.

Sónya
was
softened
,
excited
,
and
touched
by
all
that
had
occurred
that
day
,
especially
by
the
mysterious
fulfillment
she
had
just
seen
of
her
vision
.
Now
that
she
knew
that
the
renewal
of
Natásha
's
relations
with
Prince
Andrew
would
prevent
Nicholas
from
marrying
Princess
Mary
,
she
was
joyfully
conscious
of
a
return
of
that
self-sacrificing
spirit
in
which
she
was
accustomed
to
live
and
loved
to
live
.
So
with
a
joyful
consciousness
of
performing
a
magnanimous
deed
--
interrupted
several
times
by
the
tears
that
dimmed
her
velvety
black
eyes
--
she
wrote
that
touching
letter
the
arrival
of
which
had
so
amazed
Nicholas
.
The
officer
and
soldiers
who
had
arrested
Pierre
treated
him
with
hostility
but
yet
with
respect
,
in
the
guardhouse
to
which
he
was
taken
.
In
their
attitude
toward
him
could
still
be
felt
both
uncertainty
as
to
who
he
might
be
--
perhaps
a
very
important
person
--
and
hostility
as
a
result
of
their
recent
personal
conflict
with
him
.
But
when
the
guard
was
relieved
next
morning
,
Pierre
felt
that
for
the
new
guard
--
both
officers
and
men
--
he
was
not
as
interesting
as
he
had
been
to
his
captors
;
and
in
fact
the
guard
of
the
second
day
did
not
recognize
in
this
big
,
stout
man
in
a
peasant
coat
the
vigorous
person
who
had
fought
so
desperately
with
the
marauder
and
the
convoy
and
had
uttered
those
solemn
words
about
saving
a
child
;
they
saw
in
him
only
No.
17
of
the
captured
Russians
,
arrested
and
detained
for
some
reason
by
order
of
the
Higher
Command
.
If
they
noticed
anything
remarkable
about
Pierre
,
it
was
only
his
unabashed
,
meditative
concentration
and
thoughtfulness
,
and
the
way
he
spoke
French
,
which
struck
them
as
surprisingly
good
.
In
spite
of
this
he
was
placed
that
day
with
the
other
arrested
suspects
,
as
the
separate
room
he
had
occupied
was
required
by
an
officer
.
All
the
Russians
confined
with
Pierre
were
men
of
the
lowest
class
and
,
recognizing
him
as
a
gentleman
,
they
all
avoided
him
,
more
especially
as
he
spoke
French
.
Pierre
felt
sad
at
hearing
them
making
fun
of
him
.

That
evening
he
learned
that
all
these
prisoners
(
he
,
probably
,
among
them
)
were
to
be
tried
for
incendiarism
.
On
the
third
day
he
was
taken
with
the
others
to
a
house
where
a
French
general
with
a
white
mustache
sat
with
two
colonels
and
other
Frenchmen
with
scarves
on
their
arms
.
With
the
precision
and
definiteness
customary
in
addressing
prisoners
,
and
which
is
supposed
to
preclude
human
frailty
,
Pierre
like
the
others
was
questioned
as
to
who
he
was
,
where
he
had
been
,
with
what
object
,
and
so
on
.
These
questions
,
like
questions
put
at
trials
generally
,
left
the
essence
of
the
matter
aside
,
shut
out
the
possibility
of
that
essence
's
being
revealed
,
and
were
designed
only
to
form
a
channel
through
which
the
judges
wished
the
answers
of
the
accused
to
flow
so
as
to
lead
to
the
desired
result
,
namely
a
conviction
.
As
soon
as
Pierre
began
to
say
anything
that
did
not
fit
in
with
that
aim
,
the
channel
was
removed
and
the
water
could
flow
to
waste
.
Pierre
felt
,
moreover
,
what
the
accused
always
feel
at
their
trial
,
perplexity
as
to
why
these
questions
were
put
to
him
.
He
had
a
feeling
that
it
was
only
out
of
condescension
or
a
kind
of
civility
that
this
device
of
placing
a
channel
was
employed
.
He
knew
he
was
in
these
men
's
power
,
that
only
by
force
had
they
brought
him
there
,
that
force
alone
gave
them
the
right
to
demand
answers
to
their
questions
,
and
that
the
sole
object
of
that
assembly
was
to
inculpate
him
.
And
so
,
as
they
had
the
power
and
wish
to
inculpate
him
,
this
expedient
of
an
inquiry
and
trial
seemed
unnecessary
.
It
was
evident
that
any
answer
would
lead
to
conviction
.
