    • 1867, Иван Тургенев, “VII”, in Дым; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., Smoke, 1896:
      Наступили светлые мгновенья первой любви, мгновенья, которым не суждено, да и не следует повторяться в одной и той же жизни.
      Nastupili svetlyje mgnovenʹja pervoj ljubvi, mgnovenʹja, kotorym ne suždeno, da i ne sledujet povtorjatʹsja v odnoj i toj že žizni.
      Then followed the radiant moments of first love—moments which are not destined to be, and could not fittingly be, repeated in the same life.
