'Darya Alexandrovna?

'Ask Darya Alexandrovna.'

'Darya Alexandrovna?' Matthew repeated, as if in doubt.

While they were playing Dolly was not feeling happy.

And the most passionate and impossible romances occurred to Dolly's fancy.

Taking leave of the Princess Barbara and of the men was unpleasant to Dolly.

'You wished to go to see the Princess Oblonskaya,' said the maid, apparently understanding her.

Anastasia doesn't think much of Daria's cooking, or of Daria herself.

One of the frocks, which the English governess had undertaken to alter, was the cause of much bad blood.

But Dolly did not at all like the general atmosphere of that nursery, especially the English nurse.

All the faces turned toward her seemed to Dolly to be healthy and bright, mocking her with their joy in life.

Shall I bring some more bread and give the laddie a bit?' he asked Dolly, pointing to Grisha, who was finishing his crust.

'No, it's too hot better let's walk through the garden and go for a row, to let Darya Alexandrovna see the banks,' suggested Vronsky.

I have been carried away. This is the way to the hospital,' he said, turning to Dolly and pointing to a turning that led out of the avenue.

To Dolly it sounded strange to hear how assured he was of being in the right, here at his own table.

'Have you ever seen a reaping machine?' she asked Dolly. 'We had been to look at them when we met you.

Oblonsky, who was feeling very jolly, sent one to Dolly which ran as follows 'Nevedovsky elected by majority of twenty.

This answer had seemed horrible to Dolly, despite the good natured sweetness of the young woman's looks, but now she could not help recalling it.

'Yes, I will go,' said Anna, recovering and rousing herself 'and if a telegram comes during my absence, send it to Darya Alexandrovna's...

'Yes, he asked me to tell Darya Alexandrovna that he has got the post,' said Koznyshev discontentedly, considering that what the Prince was saying was not to the point.

In September 1930, he married dancer and ballet teacher Darja Collin, the start of a short happy period in his life.

Karenin unfolded the rug he had wrapped round his legs, which were so sensitive to the cold, got out of the carriage, and making his way through the snow approached Dolly.

He was confused because he imagined that Dolly might not like to accept the help of a stranger in matters that ought to be attended to by her husband.

He ran about with the children, taught them gymnastics, amused Miss Hull by his broken English and talked to Dolly about his rural occupations.

Dolly did not want to part from the peasant women their conversation pleased her so much because their interests were exactly similar to hers.

She really did not like the way Oblonsky had of forcing his family affairs upon strangers, and knew at once that Levin understood this.

Anna did not even glance at him but it still seemed to Dolly out of place to begin to discuss this big subject in the calèche, so she briefly replied

To change the conversation Levin went on to explain to Dolly a theory of dairy farming which maintained that a cow was only a machine for the transformation of fodder into milk, and so on.

What pleased Dolly most was the women's evident admiration for the great number of children she had, and their loveliness.

Dolly found her politeness, tidiness, and attention pleasant, but did not feel at ease with her she was ashamed to let her see the patched dressing jacket, which as ill luck would have it she had brought by mistake.

The dark browed, dark haired, rosy little girl, with her firm ruddy little body covered with goose flesh, pleased Dolly very much, despite the severe expression with which she regarded the new visitor she even felt a little envious of the child's healthy appearance.
