Cher ami!

Je puis Vous promettre de la manière la plus positive, que pour le 15 du mois suivant la musique sera prête.

Tâchez que «l'Opritchnik» soit remis à plus tard. En attendant chantez «Guillame Tell».

Vôtre devoué,

P. Tchaikovsky

Dear friend!

I can now promise you most positively that the music shall be ready by the 15th of next month.

See to it that "The Oprichnik" is postponed. In the meanwhile sing "Guillame Tell".

Your devoted,

P. Tchaikovsky
