Kore. Adrian, I can not believe you. You will save her!
Adr. How can I now? The struggle is over. For a heavenly motive I refused to join you; I can not consent now for an earthly one. O, if you had not told me! If you had pleaded a little longer—[Realizes what he is saying, and looks at Korelenko with a bitter smile] You see it is impossible.
Kore. [Raging] I will kill you!
Adr. Do, Sasha.
Kore. [Turning from him] Vera! My little girl!
Adr. [Rising suddenly] O, I have not told you——
Kore. What? Quick!
