{{centre|Многоуважаемый Семён Николаевич!}}<br />
От всей души благодарю Вас за присланную контрамарку и поспешаю извиниться, что напрасно беспокоил Вас своей просьбой. Оказывается, что мне сегодня нельзя быть в театре, но зато я остаюсь на весь завтрашний день, и уже был у П. И. Бларамберга, который обещал мне достать хоть какое-нибудь местечко на вечер.<br />
<br />
Очень, очень благодарен Вам и ещё раз прошу извинить, что напрасно утруждал Вас.<br />
<br />
Контрамарку при сем возвращаю.<br />
<br />
Искренне преданный и уважающий Вас,<br />

{{centre|Most respected [[Semyon Kruglikov|Semyon Nikolayevich]]!}}<br />
I thank you with all my heart for sending the pass <ref name="note1"/> and hasten to apologise for troubling you unnecessarily with my request. It turns out that I am unable to be at the theatre today, but then I will be there throughout tomorrow, along with P. I. Blaramberg, who has promised to accommodate me for this evening at least.<br />
<br />
I am very, very grateful to you, and once again beg you to excuse my bothering you unnecessarily.<br />
<br />
I am returning the pass herewith.<br />
<br />
With sincere devotion and respect for you,<br />

<ref name="note1">Evidently Tchaikovsky had requested a pass for admission to the Maly Theatre in [[Moscow]], where the Musical-Dramatic School of the [[Moscow]] Philharmonic Society were rehearsing the new opera ''Skomorokh'' (Скоморох) by the Russian composer Pavel Ivanovich Blaramberg (1841-1907). Tchaikovsky did attend the premiere the following evening, at which only the first act was performed.</ref><br />
