{{centre|Дорогой Саша!}}<br />
Посылаю тебе все 3-е действие сегодня. Большая просьба! Я не выставил цифр (вместо букв, которые я ставлю красными чернилами в кружке ''1, 2, 3'' и т. д.), ибо забыл, какая последняя цифра в 1-ой тетради, у тебя уже находящейся. Пожалуйста, благодетель, выставь их, но ''красными чернилами'', где тебе вздумается и почаще. Целую и обнимаю тебя!<br />
<br />
Я устал от работы, как тысяча собак! <br />

{{centre|Dear [[Aleksandr Ziloti|Sasha]]!}}<br />
I'm sending you the whole 3rd act today <ref name="note1"/>. A huge request! I haven't put the numbers (instead of letters, which I insert in red ink in a circle ''1, 2, 3'' etc.) because I've forgotten what the last number was in the 1st book, which is already with you. Please, kind benefactor, insert them, but in ''red ink'', wherever and as often as you think fit. I kiss and hug you!<br />
<br />
I'm as tired from working as a thousand dogs!<br />
{{right|Yours, P. Tchaikovsky}}<br />
