Shortly
after
nine
o'clock
that
evening
,
Weyrother
drove
with
his
plans
to
Kutúzov
's
quarters
where
the
council
of
war
was
to
be
held
.
All
the
commanders
of
columns
were
summoned
to
the
commander
in
chief
's
and
with
the
exception
of
Prince
Bagratión
,
who
declined
to
come
,
were
all
there
at
the
appointed
time
.
Weyrother
,
who
was
in
full
control
of
the
proposed
battle
,
by
his
eagerness
and
briskness
presented
a
marked
contrast
to
the
dissatisfied
and
drowsy
Kutúzov
,
who
reluctantly
played
the
part
of
chairman
and
president
of
the
council
of
war
.
Weyrother
evidently
felt
himself
to
be
at
the
head
of
a
movement
that
had
already
become
unrestrainable
.
He
was
like
a
horse
running
downhill
harnessed
to
a
heavy
cart
.
Whether
he
was
pulling
it
or
being
pushed
by
it
he
did
not
know
,
but
rushed
along
at
headlong
speed
with
no
time
to
consider
what
this
movement
might
lead
to
.
Weyrother
had
been
twice
that
evening
to
the
enemy
's
picket
line
to
reconnoiter
personally
,
and
twice
to
the
Emperors
,
Russian
and
Austrian
,
to
report
and
explain
,
and
to
his
headquarters
where
he
had
dictated
the
dispositions
in
German
,
and
now
,
much
exhausted
,
he
arrived
at
Kutúzov
's
.
He
was
evidently
so
busy
that
he
even
forgot
to
be
polite
to
the
commander
in
chief
.
He
interrupted
him
,
talked
rapidly
and
indistinctly
,
without
looking
at
the
man
he
was
addressing
,
and
did
not
reply
to
questions
put
to
him
.
He
was
bespattered
with
mud
and
had
a
pitiful
,
weary
,
and
distracted
air
,
though
at
the
same
time
he
was
haughty
and
self-confident
.

Kutúzov
was
occupying
a
nobleman
's
castle
of
modest
dimensions
near
Ostralitz
.
In
the
large
drawing
room
which
had
become
the
commander
in
chief
's
office
were
gathered
Kutúzov
himself
,
Weyrother
,
and
the
members
of
the
council
of
war
.
They
were
drinking
tea
,
and
only
awaited
Prince
Bagratión
to
begin
the
council
.
At
last
Bagratión
's
orderly
came
with
the
news
that
the
prince
could
not
attend
.
Prince
Andrew
came
in
to
inform
the
commander
in
chief
of
this
and
,
availing
himself
of
permission
previously
given
him
by
Kutúzov
to
be
present
at
the
council
,
he
remained
in
the
room
.
"
Since
Prince
Bagratión
is
not
coming
,
we
may
begin
,
"
said
Weyrother
,
hurriedly
rising
from
his
seat
and
going
up
to
the
table
on
which
an
enormous
map
of
the
environs
of
Brünn
was
spread
out
.
Kutúzov
,
with
his
uniform
unbuttoned
so
that
his
fat
neck
bulged
over
his
collar
as
if
escaping
,
was
sitting
almost
asleep
in
a
low
chair
,
with
his
podgy
old
hands
resting
symmetrically
on
its
arms
.
At
the
sound
of
Weyrother
's
voice
,
he
opened
his
one
eye
with
an
effort
.

"
Yes
,
yes
,
if
you
please
!
It
is
already
late
,
"
said
he
,
and
nodding
his
head
he
let
it
droop
and
again
closed
his
eye
.
If
at
first
the
members
of
the
council
thought
that
Kutúzov
was
pretending
to
sleep
,
the
sounds
his
nose
emitted
during
the
reading
that
followed
proved
that
the
commander
in
chief
at
that
moment
was
absorbed
by
a
far
more
serious
matter
than
a
desire
to
show
his
contempt
for
the
dispositions
or
anything
else
--
he
was
engaged
in
satisfying
the
irresistible
human
need
for
sleep
.
He
really
was
asleep
.
Weyrother
,
with
the
gesture
of
a
man
too
busy
to
lose
a
moment
,
glanced
at
Kutúzov
and
,
having
convinced
himself
that
he
was
asleep
,
took
up
a
paper
and
in
a
loud
,
monotonous
voice
began
to
read
out
the
dispositions
for
the
impending
battle
,
under
a
heading
which
he
also
read
out
:
