Scene IV Boris, Kuligin and Varvara
KULIGIN. I’ll go to the parade, sir. I’m in your way. I’ll wait for you there.
BORIS. Very well, I’ll come directly.
VARVARA (hiding her face in her kerchief). Do you know the hollow behind the Kabanovs’ garden?
BORIS. Yes.
VARVARA. You come there a little later on.
BORIS. What for?
VARVARA. How stupid you are! Come; then you’ll see what for. Well, you’d better make haste now, since that person’s waiting for you. (Boris goes.) There, he didn’t know me! Well, now let him wonder, I know very well that Katerina won’t hold out, she’ll run out to see him. [Goes in at the gate. Curtain.
