The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy: voice the tears came into her eyes. "No; if things are to go on
like this, the end will come much, much too soon."
"What is it, dear one?"
"What? I've been waiting in agony for an hour, two hours.... No,
I won't ...I can't quarrel with you. Of course you couldn't
come. No, I won't." She laid her two hands on his shoulders, and
looked a long while at him with a profound, passionate, and at
the same time searching look. She was studying his face to make
up for the time she had not seen him. She was, every time she saw
him, making the picture of him in her imagination (incomparably
superior, impossible in reality) fit with him as he really was.
