Многоуважаемый отец Александр!
Поручения Ваши всё исполню, и насчёт Любочки будьте совершенно покойны. Но на покупку нот решительно отказываюсь принять деньги, ибо они мне ничего не стоят. Я отложил свой отъезд на один день, т. е. уеду в воскресенье вечером. Искренно уважающий и преданный, П. Чайковский |
Most respected Father Aleksandr!
I shall carry out your instructions, and as regards Lyubochka, rest completely assured. But I categorically will not accept the money to pay for the sheet music, because it cost me nothing. I have postponed my departure for one day, i.e. I shall be leaving on Sunday evening. Sincerely respectful and devoted, P. Tchaikovsky |
