Text

Michael Well! He won’t do. Liubov doesn’t love him, that’s obvious. Varenka We know that. Tatiana She won’t go against papa, and the baron is a good match, isn’t he?

[... …]

Michael This marriage cannot take place. We must save Liubov. To give oneself without love is a sin against our inner life which is our only real life. The life of our bodily existence is mere illusion. I’ll explain it all to father. God, I’m starving!
