WHEN OBLONSKY ASKED LEVIN HIS REASON for coming to town, Levin had blushed and been angry with himself for blushing, because he could not answer: 'I have come to propose to your sister-in-law,' although he really had come solely for that purpose.
Cuando Oblonsky preguntó a Levin a qué había ido a Moscú, Levin se sonrojó y se indignó consigo mismo por haberse sonrojado y por no haber sabido decirle: «He venido para pedir la mano de tu cuñada» , pues sólo por este motivo se encontraba en Moscú.
