//It is a former student,\\
and he walks into the station.\\
"By thy shabby hat and glittering eyes,\\
wherefore such agitation?//

//"Have you forgotten something?\\
You're back again so soon--\\
Surely you've better company\\
than me this afternoon."//

//He holds him with his skinny hand.\\
"I was the one--" quoth he.\\
"You're ill! Sit down! Some water!"\\
Into a chair dropped he.//

//He waves away the offered cup,\\
and in a voice that cracks,\\
He says, "I killed the pawnbroker\\
and her sister with an axe."//

//Ilya Petrovich listened then,\\
mouth open, eyes protrudent.\\
And thus spake on Raskolnikov,\\
that tortured former student://
