Маня! Сейчас я получил письмо от Модеста, в коем он пишет, что Вы хотите летом жить во Фроловском. Я до того обрадовался, что бросил работу (а это много значит), чтобы написать, что я ''безумно'' радуюсь. Удивительно, как я иногда чувствую бешеную дружбу и любовь к Вам, несмотря на все Ваши низости и на то, что Вы ''катковского'' лагеря, тогда как я либерал.<br />
<br />
Разумеется, и Кату я очень, очень рад ''tu have in Frolows[koye]''<br />

[[Manya]]! I've just received a letter from [[Modest]] <ref name="note1"/>, in which he writes that you want to stay for the summer at [[Frolovskoye]]. I was so overjoyed that you have given up work (very significantly), in order to write, that I'm ''frantic'' with joy. It's astonishing how at times I feel such a mad friendship and love for you, despite all your baseness and that you are in ''Katkov's'' camp <ref name="note2"/>, when I am a liberal.<br />
<br />
Of course I'm very, very glad ''to have in [[Frolovskoye]]'' you and [[Katya]] <ref name="note3"/>.<br />
