The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Forged Coupon by Leo Tolstoy: "We don't bargain in our shop," said the
shopkeeper with a dignified air.
"Well, I will take it," said Mahin, and put
the coupon on the counter. "Wrap up the frame
and give me change. But please be quick. We
must be off to the theatre, and it is getting late."
"You have plenty of time," said the shop-
keeper, examining the coupon very closely because
of her shortsightedness.
"It will look lovely in that frame, don't you
think so? " said Mahin, turning to Mitia.
