|Original text={{right|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Клин&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;19 июля [18]93 г[ода]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{centre|Милый друг Миша!}}&lt;br /&gt;
Наконец после трёхмесячного шатанья вчера вечером я вернулся домой. В числе 30 (!!!) писем, ожидавших меня здесь, я нашёл и твоё. Ты не рассердишься, голубчик, если на этот раз я ограничусь лишь несколькими словами, ибо мне нужно написать сразу слишком много ответных писем и сил не хватит, дабы побеседовать по душе.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
О твоём переходе в Москву я уже знал. Конечно, я радуюсь, что я тебя и Варвару Михайловну буду видеть чаще, но... как тебе сказать? Мне всё-таки как-то жаль тебя и её. Вы так славно и привольно жили в моем милом Тифлисе!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Впрочем, посмотрим, быть может, все к лучшему!! Во всяком случае, повторяю, приятно сознавать близость к вам, да, наконец, нельзя за тебя не порадоваться, что ты перестанешь быть так одинок в смысле общения с музыкой и музыкантами.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Я написал вчерне новую симфонию и новый фортепиан[ный] концерт. Завтра принимаюсь за инструментовку.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Каков Сафонов! Выхлопотал от царя 400 тысяч!!! Этой стороной его деятельности нельзя не восхищаться. Да и вообще как администратор он молодец.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Целую ручку Варв[ары] Мих[айловны], тебя обнимаю, Тане поцелуй и Анне Михайловне поклон.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

{{centre|Dear friend [[Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov|Misha]]!}}&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, after three months of meanderings, I returned home last night. Among the 30 (!!!) letters awaiting me here, I found yours. If you will not mind, golubchik, this time I shall confine myself to just a few words, because I must write so many replies right away, and I don&amp;#039;t have the energy for a heartfelt chat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I already knew about your move to [[Moscow]] &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;. Naturally I&amp;#039;m delighted that I&amp;#039;ll be seeing you and [[Varvara Zarudnaya|Varvara Mikhaylovna]] more often, but... what say you? I still feel rather sorry for you and her. You lived so splendidly and freely in my dear [[Tiflis]]!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But let&amp;#039;s see, perhaps it will turn out all the better!! In any case, as I said, it&amp;#039;s nice to know that you are close at hand; yes, you cannot but rejoice that you&amp;#039;ll no longer be so isolated, and will feel part of the community of music and musicians.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&amp;#039;ve written a new symphony and a new piano concerto in rough &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note2&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;. Tomorrow I shall set about the instrumentation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How about [[Safonov]]! Procuring 400 thousand from the [[Alexander III|Tsar]]!!! One cannot but admire this aspect of his job. And how young he still is for an administrator. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kiss [[Varvara Zarudnaya|Varvara Mikhailovna]]&amp;#039;s hands, hug you, kiss Tanya &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note3&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; and bow to [[Anna Voytkevich|Anna Mikhaylovna]].&lt;br /&gt;
