1859, Иван Тургенев , “XLIII”, in Дворянское гнездо; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., A House of Gentlefolk, 1917:— Зато́ же́нщины уме́ют цени́ть доброту́ и великоду́шие, — промо́лвила Варва́ра Па́вловна и, тихо́нько опусти́вшись на коле́ни пе́ред Ма́рьей Дми́триевной, обвила́ её по́лный стан рука́ми и прижа́лась к ней лицо́м.- — Zató žénščiny uméjut cenítʹ dobrotú i velikodúšije, — promólvila Varvára Pávlovna i, tixónʹko opustívšisʹ na koléni péred Márʹjej Dmítrijevnoj, obvilá jejó pólnyj stan rukámi i prižálasʹ k nej licóm.
- "But then women can appreciate goodness and noble-heartedness," said Varvara Pavlovna, and gently dropping on her knees before Marya Dmitrievna, she flung her arms about her round person, and pressed her face against it.
