1915, Иван Бунин, Господин из Сан-Франциско; English translation from The Gentleman from San Francisco, New York: Modern Library, 1925:К ним приставили самую красивую и умелую горничную, бельгийку, с тонкой и твёрдой от корсета талией и в крахмальном чепчике в виде маленькой зубчатой короны, самого видного из лакеев, угольно-чёрного, огнеглазого сицилийца, и самого расторопного коридорного, маленького и полного Луиджи, много переменившего подобных мест на своём веку.- K nim pristavili samuju krasivuju i umeluju gorničnuju, belʹgijku, s tonkoj i tvjórdoj ot korseta talijej i v kraxmalʹnom čepčike v vide malenʹkoj zubčatoj korony, samovo vidnovo iz lakejev, ugolʹno-čórnovo, ogneglazovo sicilijca, i samovo rastoropnovo koridornovo, malenʹkovo i polnovo Luidži, mnogo peremenivševo podobnyx mest na svojóm veku.
- To them was assigned the ablest and handsomest chambermaid, a Belgian, whose waist was slenderly and firmly corseted, and whose tiny starched cap looked like a scalloped crown; also, the best-looking and most dignified of flunkies, a fiery-eyed Sicilian, black as coal; and the nimblest of bell-boys, the short and stout Luigi,—a fellow who was very fond of a joke, and who had served many masters in his time.
