    • 1879, Николай Лесков , “Глава вторая”, in Однодум; English translation from Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky, transl., Singlemind, New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2013:
      Его́ слу́шал дуб и га́ды боло́тные, а он сам де́лался полуми́стиком, полуагита́тором в библе́йском ду́хе, — по его́ слова́м: «дыша́л любо́вью и дерзнове́нием».
      Jevó slúšal dub i gády bolótnyje, a on sam délalsja polumístikom, poluagitátorom v bibléjskom dúxe, — po jevó slovám: «dyšál ljubóvʹju i derznovénijem».
      The oak and the reptiles of the swamp listened to him, while he himself became half mystic, half agitator in a biblical spirit—in his own words, “breathed out love and daring.”
