* Having unwound the string that tied the band on one leg, he carefully coiled it up and immediately set to work on the other leg, glancing up at Pierre. While one hand hung up the first string the other was already unwinding the band on the second leg. In this way, having carefully removed the leg bands by deft circular motions of his arm following one another uninterruptedly, the man hung the leg bands up on some pegs fixed above his head. Then he took out a knife, cut something, closed the knife, placed it under the head of his bed, and, seating himself comfortably, clasped his arms round his lifted knees and fixed his eyes on Pierre. The latter was conscious of something pleasant, comforting, and well rounded in these deft movements, in the man's well-ordered arrangements in his corner, and even in his very smell, and he looked at the man without taking his eyes from him.

** ОБЫЧАИ (правовой) - исторически сложившееся в определенном обществе (или местности) правило поведения, которое взято под охрану государством и обеспечено силой его принуждения. В Европе О. был основным источником права до XVI в. В настоящее время его роль в разных правовых системах мира (и отдельных государствах) неодинакова. В РФ О. признается вспомогательным источником права; законодательство РФ иногда прямо отсылает к О. или допускает их применение. Так, в ГК РФ содержатся ссылки на обычаи делового оборота (ст. 6), национальный О. (ст. 19) и местный О. (ст. 221, 309, 311, 312, 314-316, 406, 421). Совокупность правовых О. образует обычное право.
