    • 1877, Иван Тургенев, “Часть первая. VIII”, in Новь; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., Virgin Soil, 1920:
      Людски́е голоса́ звуча́ли ре́дко и сде́ржанно: ото всего́ ве́яло у́тром, тишино́й и спо́ростью у́тренней рабо́ты, ве́яло поря́дком и пра́вильностью устано́вленной жи́зни.
      Ljudskíje golosá zvučáli rédko i sdéržanno: oto vsevó véjalo útrom, tišinój i spórostʹju útrennej rabóty, véjalo porjádkom i právilʹnostʹju ustanóvlennoj žízni.
      The men's voices were heard seldom, and in reserved fashion: about everything there was a feeling of morning, of the peace and rapid progress of morning work, ​a feeling of order and regularity of life.
