    • 1862, Иван Тургенев [Ivan Turgenev], “Глава 25”, in Отцы и дети; English translation from Richard Hare, transl., Fathers and Sons, 1947:
      — Душа́ моя́, э́то не беда́; то ли ещё на све́те приеда́ется! А тепе́рь, я ду́маю, не прости́ться ли нам? С тех пор как я здесь, я препа́костно себя́ чу́вствую, то́чно начита́лся пи́сем Го́голя к калу́жской губерна́торше. Кста́ти ж, я не веле́л откла́дывать лошаде́й.
      — Dušá mojá, éto ne bedá; to li ješčó na svéte prijedájetsja! A tepérʹ, ja dúmaju, ne prostítʹsja li nam? S tex por kak ja zdesʹ, ja prepákostno sebjá čúvstvuju, tóčno načitálsja písem Gógolja k kalúžskoj gubernátorše. Kstáti ž, ja ne velél otkládyvatʹ lošadéj.
      "There's no harm in that, my good soul; one gets tired of plenty of other things in the world! And now I think we had better say good-by. Ever since I've been here I've felt so disgusting, just as if I'd been reading Gogol's letters to the wife of the Governor of Kaluga. By the way, I didn't tell them to unharness the horses."
