| True, the slavery and abasement in which she held me might have given me (such things often do so) the power to question her with abrupt directness (seeing that,, inasmuch as I figured in her eyes as a mere slave and nonentity, she could not very well have taken offence at any rude curiosity); but the fact was that, though she let me question her, she never returned me a single answer, and at times did not so much as notice me. In spite of her sedentary habits such abrupt decisions were not without precedent in Zeena's history. She had not seen him since his abrupt departure from Moscow, and she sent her elder son to bid him come to see her. |
