ORL?FF AND HIS WIFE
Almost every Saturday, just before the All-Night Vigil Service, from two windows in the cellar of merchant Pet?nnikoff's old and filthy house, opening on the narrow court-yard encumbered with various utensils, and built up with wooden servants'-quarters ricketty with age, broke forth the vehement shrieks of a woman:
The evening service, composed of Vespers and Matins, which is used on Saturdays, and on the Eves of most other Feast-days. Sunday begins with sunset on Saturday, in the Holy Catholic Orthodox Church of the East, and the appointed evening service is obligatory before the Liturgy can be celebrated on Sunday morning.--Translator.
"Stop! Stop, you drunken devil!" the woman cried in a low contralto voice.
"Let go!" replied a man's tenor voice.
"I won't, I won't. I'll give it to you, you monster!"
"You li-ie! You will let me go!"
"You may kill me--but I won't!"

"Heavens! He has murdered me ... he-eavens!"
