    • 1870, Михаил Салтыков-Щедрин , “Поклонение мамоне и покаяние”, in История одного города; English translation from I. P. Foote, transl., The History of a Town, Oxford: Willem A. Meeuws, 1980:
      Так, наприме́р, одна́жды он на́чал объясня́ть глу́повцам права́ челове́ка; но, к сча́стью, ко́нчил тем, что объясни́л права́ Бурбо́нов.
      Tak, naprimér, odnáždy on náčal obʺjasnjátʹ glúpovcam pravá čelovéka; no, k sčástʹju, kónčil tem, što obʺjasníl pravá Burbónov.
      Thus, for instance, he once began explaining to the Glupovites the rights of man, but fortunately ended by explaining the rights of the Bourbons.
