      Порфи́рий Влади́мирыч ложи́лся на послеобе́денный о́тдых, Евпраксеюшка зарыва́лась в свое́й ко́мнате в пери́ну, Про́хор уходи́л в людску́ю, и Аннинька остава́лась соверше́нно одна́.
      Porfírij Vladímiryč ložílsja na posleobédennyj ótdyx, Jevpraksejuška zaryválasʹ v svojéj kómnate v perínu, Próxor uxodíl v ljudskúju, i Anninʹka ostaválasʹ soveršénno odná.
