Поне[дельник] 8½ час[ов] утра Карлуша!
Не можешь ли, голубчик, по старой памяти прислать мне 100 р[ублей] до следующего воскресенья. Я хотел завтра сам зайти, но вернулся домой лишь в 7 час[ов] утра; сейчас ложусь спать и Бог знает когда встану. П. Чайковский |
Monday 8.30 am For old time's sake, golubchik, could you send me 100 rubles until next Sunday? I wanted to come over myself tomorrow, but I only returned home at 7 in the morning; I'm going straight to bed and God knows when I shall rise. P. Tchaikovsky |
Notes and References
