makar

The phrase "dans le pays de Makar et de ses veaux" meant: "wherever Makar may drive his calves."

But it came over him that Makar was still behind the prison gate and that this was not the time to enjoy oneself.

Gerasim and the porter, who had followed Makar Alexeevich, stopped him in the vestibule and tried to take the pistol from him.

After drinking and smoking a great deal, Makar goes to sleep and has a dream.
