it? We've all time before us. I've been waiting for the last

three hours for you; I've been up twice and found you asleep.

I've called on Zossimov twice; not at home, only fancy! But no

matter, he will turn up. And I've been out on my own business,

too. You know I've been moving to-day, moving with my uncle. I

business. Give me the parcel, Nastasya. We will open it directly.

And how do you feel now, brother?"

"I am quite well, I am not ill. Razumihin, have you been here

long?"

"I tell you I've been waiting for the last three hours."

"No, before."

"How do you mean?"

"How long have you been coming here?"

"Why I told you all about it this morning. Don't you remember?"

Raskolnikov pondered. The morning seemed like a dream to him. He

could not remember alone, and looked inquiringly at Razumihin.
