Work, however, went on as usual, for the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;sketches&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of the symphony are now almost finished, and by the start of next week I&amp;#039;ll be taking up the instrumentation. Clearly in such awful weather I wasn&amp;#039;t especially pleased or cheerful. I even felt a yearning for &amp;#039;&amp;#039;company&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and to this end last Sunday morning I went to [[Maydanovo]] and spent the whole day there. Everything there seemed somehow sad and melancholic to me, and nowhere did I feel so keenly the grief of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Nikolay Konradtyev|N. D. Kondratyev]]&amp;#039;s&amp;#039;&amp;#039; disappearance from this world as there, especially in his alleyway. Generally in [[Maydanovo]] I feel a painful regret for the past, and a dreadful awareness of the fleetingness and irrevocability of the past. Three years! How they&amp;#039;ve flown by! I had dinner with Novichikha (even though she hasn&amp;#039;t changed, and still gabbles away wildly, I was still pleased to listen to her incessant chattering), played vint with her, and spent the evening with Simon, who occupies the big house. She&amp;#039;s had terrible vacancies, and Simon only took it because she pestered and made enormous concessions. &lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Their &amp;#039;&amp;#039;girl&amp;#039;&amp;#039; stayed behind, to my great pleasure; I&amp;#039;m love her more and more; she&amp;#039;s an exceptionally sweet child. The Legoshins will becoming back, and Sasha will stay here until my name day.&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

The sweet peas are clinging on by a thread; the mignonette has turned yellow and red all over, as in autumn; the gillyflowers are dying one after another; the heliotropes have turned black. Amongst the perennial flowers, only the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;lupins&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are growing well; the remainder poked out of the ground ages ago, but they flatly refuse to grow, and all remain in the form of embryos. I was astonished at the thickness and abundance of the vegetation in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Maydanovo]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in comparison with [[Frolovskoye]]&amp;#039;. It&amp;#039;s awfully &amp;#039;&amp;#039;bare&amp;#039;&amp;#039; here, and everything is somehow sluggish to grow. But nevertheless, I&amp;#039;m continuing to take delightful strolls, weather permitting. That hen of yours sitting on her eggs has hatched 10 chicks. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Rahter]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (Bütner) came to me unexpectedly for a whole day!!! You can imagine what it was like for me to speak German all day. Anyway, he&amp;#039;s a dear old fellow. Well then, now I&amp;#039;m waiting for news about you from [[Borzhom]]; it&amp;#039;s long overdue. I hug you, golubchik [[Modya]]! [[Nikolay Konradi|Kolya]] too! God, how wish I was in [[Borzhom]].&lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Наконец, со вчерашнего дня, наступило что-то вроде лета, а то просто житья не было и я постоянно был не по себе. Работа, Однако ж, шла так себе, ибо &amp;#039;&amp;#039;эскизы&amp;#039;&amp;#039; симфонии уже почти кончены, и не далее как с начала будущей недели примусь за инструментовку. Понятно, что при столь ужасной погоде мне не особенно было весело и приятно. Даже я почувствовал стремление к &amp;#039;&amp;#039;обществу&amp;#039;&amp;#039; и ради этого в последнее воскресенье с утра пошёл в Майданово и провёл там целый день. Как-то меланхолично и грустно все показалось мне там, и нигде так живо я не почувствовал печаль об исчезновении из этого мира &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Н. Д. Кондр[атьева]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; как там, особенно в его аллейке. Вообще в Майданове мне было болезненно жаль прошлого, и жутко сознавал ась стремительность и невозвратность прошлого. Три года! Как они пролетели! Обедал у Новичихи (она зато не меняется и все так же бестолково болтает, и мне даже приятно было слушать её неумолкаемое стрекотание), играл у ней в винт, а вечер провёл у Симона, занимающего большой дом. У неё страшная пустота, и Симон только оттого взял, что она при стала и сделала огромную уступку&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Здесь теперь стало тихо, ибо Саша Легошин (прогостивший неделю) уехал с женой в Москву на несколько дней. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Девочка&amp;#039;&amp;#039; их осталась, к моему величайшему удовольствию; я все более и более люблю её; необыкновенно милый ребёнок. Легошины вернутся, и Саша останется здесь до моих именин.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Цветы в отчаянном положении. Держатся только с грехом пополам душистые горошки; резеда вся пожелтела и покраснела, как осенью; левкои один за другим гибнут; гелиотропы почернели. Из постоянных цветов только &amp;#039;&amp;#039;лупинус&amp;#039;&amp;#039; растёт недурно; остальные повылезли из земли уже давно, но решительно не желают расти и все остаются в виде эмбрионов. Я был поражён в &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Майданове&amp;#039;&amp;#039; густотой и обилием растительности в сравнении с Фроловским. Здесь ужасно &amp;#039;&amp;#039;плешиво&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, и все как-то туго растёт. Но тем не менее я продолжаю восхищаться прогулками, поколику погода позволяет их делать. Курица, при тебе сидевшая на яйцах, высидела 10 цыплят. Приезжал ко мне неожиданно на целый день &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Ратер&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (Бютнер)!!! Можешь себе представить, какова мне было по-немецки целый день говорить. Впрочем, милый старичок. Ну-с, теперь жду об вас известий из Боржома; уж давно бы пора. Обнимаю тебя, голубчик Модя! Колю также! Володю также! Боже, как мне хотелось бы в Боржоме быть!!!&lt;br /&gt;
