Towards the end of 1880, when he was fifty-two, Tolstoy one day approached the young tutor who lived in his house at Yasnaya Polyana, and in great agitation asked him to do him a service. The tutor, seeing Tolstoy so moved, asked what he could possibly do for him. In an unready voice Tolstoy replied: ’Save me, I am falling!’ The tutor, in alarm, inquired what was the matter, to which Tolstoy replied: ’I am overcome by sexual desire and feel a complete lack of power to retrain myself. I am in danger of yielding to the temptation. Help me!’
’I am a weak man myself, ’ replied the tutor. ’How can I help you?’
’You can, if only you won’t refuse!’
’But what must I do to help you?’
’This! Come with me on my daily walks. We will go out together and talk, and the temptation will not occur to me.’
