      Обе́д, кото́рым он попо́тчевал своего́ го́стя, коне́чно, удовлетвори́л бы са́мого взыска́тельного гастроно́ма, но Са́нину он показа́лся бесконе́чным, несно́сным!
      Obéd, kotórym on popótčeval svojevó góstja, konéčno, udovletvoríl by sámovo vzyskátelʹnovo gastronóma, no Sáninu on pokazálsja beskonéčnym, nesnósnym!
      The dinner with which he regaled his guest would of course have satisfied the most exacting gourmand, but to Sanin it seemed endless, insupportable!
