Желание Ваше исполнено, но, сознаюсь, лишь сегодня!!! Вы отлично сделали, что напомнили мне о данном Вам обещании: я становлюсь в последнее время рассеян до чудовищности. Но если я провинился перед Вами относительно времени отправки письма, то зато не пожалел самых сильных красок, чтобы характеризировать симпатичный талант Ваш, и директор Пражского театра г. Шуберт будет глупцом, если не последует моему совету пригласить Вас. Очень буду рад, если дело это устроится.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Вчера меня посетил один старинный друг мой, провинциал и сообщил, что исполнение партии Татьяны в последнем представлении «&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Онегина&amp;#039;&amp;#039;» в Москве было великолепно.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
На будущей неделе &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Татьяну&amp;#039;&amp;#039; в Петербурге будет петь &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Медея Мей&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Преинтересно!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Засим, целуя Ваши ручки и прося Вас поклониться Сергею Андреевичу, остаюсь преданный Вам&lt;br /&gt;

{{centre|Dear [[Mariya Klimentova-Muromtseva|Mariya Nikolayevna]]!}}&lt;br /&gt;
Your wish has been fulfilled, but, I confess, only today!!!&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; You did splendidly to remind me of the promise I made to you: lately I&amp;#039;ve become horrendously absent-minded. But if you find me at fault for the timing of my sending the letter, then I have no regrets about characterising your talents in the most colourful terms, and the director of the [[Prague]] Theatre Mr [[Šubert]] would be a fool if he did not heed my advice to invite you. I shall be very glad to put the matter to rest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yesterday I was visited by an old friend of mine from the provinces, who told me that the performer of the role of Tatyana in the latest [[Moscow]] production of &amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Onegin]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot; was magnificent &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note2&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Next week, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Medeya Mey&amp;#039;&amp;#039; will be singing &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Tatyana&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in [[Petersburg]] &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note3&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;. Most interesting!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whereupon, kissing your hands and asking you to bow to Sergey Andreyevich &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note4&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;, I remain your devoted&lt;br /&gt;
