Толинька, голубчик, не сердись, что я ограничиваюсь коротенькими письмецами. Я так устаю от работы, что решительно не могу длинных писем писать. Мне ведь необходимо в течение лета кончить симфонию, увертюру к «Гамлету» и ещё инструментовать увертюру &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Лароша&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Это я ему давно обещал. Ларош с женой гостят теперь у меня; их положение ужасно. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Плевако&amp;#039;&amp;#039; совершенно опутал их, и у них ни денег, ни надежды выпутаться нет. Впрочем, не унывают. Погода стояла дней десять дивная, и я страшно наслаждался; теперь опять дождь нескончаемый. Мечтаю о поездке к Вам осенью. Жду Модеста с Колей. Вообще все слава Богу обстоит благополучно. В доме у меня перемена: ушёл повар &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Василий&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (сам захотел уйти), и взят новый, коим я очень доволен.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Целую! От Пани ни словечка.&lt;br /&gt;

[[Tolichka]], golubchik, don&amp;#039;t be angry that I&amp;#039;m restricting myself to brief notes. I&amp;#039;m so tired from work that I absolutely cannot write long letters. After all, this summer I need to finish the symphony &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;, the overture to &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Hamlet (overture-fantasia)|Hamlet]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and also to orchestrate &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Laroche]]&amp;#039;s&amp;#039;&amp;#039; overture. I&amp;#039;ve been promising him that for ages. [[Laroche]] and his wife are currently my guests; their situation is awful. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Plevako&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note2&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; has tied them up in knots, they have no money, nor any hope of extricating themselves. Still, they are bearing up. The weather this last ten days was glorious, and I enjoyed it terribly; now it&amp;#039;s raining incessantly again. I&amp;#039;m dreaming of coming to see you in the autumn. I&amp;#039;m waiting for [[Modest]] and [[Kolya]]. In general all is well with them, thank God. I have made one change at home: &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Vasily&amp;#039;&amp;#039; the cook has left (at his own request), and I&amp;#039;ve taken on a new one, with whom I&amp;#039;m very pleased.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I kiss you! Not a word from [[Panya]].&lt;br /&gt;
{{right|Yours, P. Tchaikovsky}}&lt;br /&gt;
