    • 1856, Иван Тургенев [Ivan Turgenev], “II”, in Рудин; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., Rudin, 1894:
      Раздражи́тельность его́ доходи́ла до ребя́чества; его́ смех, звук его́ го́лоса, всё его́ существо́ каза́лось пропи́танным же́лчью.
      Razdražítelʹnostʹ jevó doxodíla do rebjáčestva; jevó smex, zvuk jevó gólosa, vsjo jevó suščestvó kazálosʹ propítannym žélčʹju.
      His ill-humour almost approached puerility; his laugh, the sound of his voice, his whole being seemed steeped in venom.
