      — Что ты там об Аграфе́не Ива́новне толку́ешь? — воскли́кнул вдруг бригади́р, и голова́ его́ подняла́сь, бе́лые бро́ви нахму́рились… — Ты смотри́ у меня́! И кака́я она́ тебе́ Аграфе́на? Агриппи́на Ива́новна — вот как на́до… её называ́ть.
      — Što ty tam ob Agraféne Ivánovne tolkúješʹ? — vosklíknul vdrug brigadír, i golová jevó podnjalásʹ, bélyje bróvi naxmúrilisʹ… — Ty smotrí u menjá! I kakája oná tebé Agraféna? Agrippína Ivánovna — vot kak nádo… jejó nazyvátʹ.
      'What are you saying there about Agrafena Ivanovna?' the brigadier called out suddenly, and his head was raised, his white eyebrows were frowning. . . 'You'd better mind! And why Agrafena, pray? Agrippina Ivanovna—that's what you should call her.'
