Милый Карлуша! Очень буду рад тебя видеть. Приезжай, когда хочешь. Думаю, что самое удобное выехать с ''почтовым поездом или с пассажирским, отходящим в 3 часа'', приехать в 7-ом часу, погулять, поужинать, поболтать, проночевать, и утром на другой день можно уехать с пассажирским, отходящим в 10.<br />
<br />
Алексей тебе наврал. Я и не думаю нуждаться в ''Фетисе''. Держи его, сколько хочешь. Итак, до свиданья! Обнимаю тебя.<br />
{{right|Твой, П. Чайковский}}<br />
Непременно предупреди письмом, в какой день приедешь.<br />
<br />

Dear [[Karlusha]]! I'll be very glad to see you <ref name="note1"/>. Come whenever you want. I think it would be best for you to take ''the postal train or passenger train, leaving at 3 o'clock'', arriving here at 7 o'clock, for a walk, dinner and chat, stay overnight, and next morning you can leave at 10 on the passenger train.<br />
<br />
[[Aleksey]] misled you. I have no need of ''Fétis'' <ref name="note2"/>. Hold on to it for as long as you want. And so, until we meet! I hug you.<br />
{{right|Yours, P. Tchaikovsky}}<br />
Be sure to inform us by letter of the date of your arrival.<br />
