	I don't know when [[Tonichka]] celebrates his name day? In any ~~event~~, I congratulate him. I've finished ''everything''. Tomorrow [[Aleksey]] will put the 3rd act in the post to [[Jurgenson]], who will deliver it to you. I'm going directly to [[Petersburg]] for a few days to meet my sick friend [[Kondratyev]]. On the return journey, I'm travelling on to [[Moscow]] for a few days, without stopping at [[Maydanovo]]. In the meantime I place my ''[[Enchantress]]'' in your care. My offspring! If you can, be attentive to the sharps, flats and naturals, and pencil in any that are missing, strike out those which are unnecessary, and correct those which have been placed incorrectly.

Не знаю, когда празднует Тоничка свои именины? На всякий случай поздравляю его. Я кончил ''все''. Завтра Алексей отправит с почтой 3-е действие к Юргенсону, а сей последний доставит его Вам. Я еду сейчас в Петербург на несколько дней для свиданья с больным моим другом Кондратьевым. На возвратном пути, не останавливаясь в Майданове, приеду в Москву на несколько дней. А пока поручаю свою «''Чародейку''» Вашим заботам. Родная моя! Если можете, посматривайте насчёт диэзов, бемолей и бекаров и карандашиком прибавляйте недостающие, уничтожайте излишние и изменяйте неправильно выставленные.

Скажите: «Господи, как этот старый остолоп надоел мне своей паршивой «Чародейкой»!!!

Целую Ваши ручки. Тоничку обнимаю.
{{right|Ваш, П. Чайковский}}
