The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Resurrection by Leo Tolstoy: Missy, with her hat on, in a dark-striped dress of some kind that
fitted her like a skin, was looking very handsome. She blushed
when she saw Nekhludoff.
"And I thought you had left," she said to him.
"I am on the point of leaving. Business is keeping me in town,
and it is on business I have come here."
"Won't you come to see mamma? She would like to see you," she
said, and knowing that she was saying what was not true, and that
he knew it also, she blushed still more.
"I fear I shall scarcely have time," Nekhludoff said gloomily,
trying to appear as if he had not noticed her blush. Missy
