    • 1870, Михаил Салтыков-Щедрин, “Сказание о шести градоначальниках”, in История одного города; English translation from I. P. Foote, transl., The History of a Town, Oxford: Willem A. Meeuws, 1980:
      Не успело ещё пагубное двоевластие пустить зловредные свои корни, как из губернии прибыл рассыльный, который, забрав обоих самозванцев и посадив их в особые сосуды, наполненные спиртом, немедленно увёз для освидетельствования.
      Ne uspelo ješčó pagubnoje dvojevlastije pustitʹ zlovrednyje svoi korni, kak iz gubernii pribyl rassylʹnyj, kotoryj, zabrav oboix samozvancev i posadiv ix v osobyje sosudy, napolnennyje spirtom, nemedlenno uvjóz dlja osvidetelʹstvovanija.
      Before the disastrous diarchy had time to spread its pernicious roots a messenger arrived from the provincial capital who took charge of the two pretenders and carried them off for investigation in special containers filled with spirit.
