The act had just finished when he came in, so before going to his brother's box he went up to the front row and paused beside Serpukhovskoy, who was standing with his knee bent, tapping the wall of the orchestra with his heel. He had noticed Vronsky afar off and welcomed him with a smile.
Акт кончился, когда он вошел, и потому он, не заходя в ложу брата, прошел до первого ряда и остановился у рампы с Серпуховским, который, согнув колено и постукивая каблуком в рампу и издалека увидав его, подозвал к себе улыбкой.
