      Да ещё, когда́ бри́чка подъе́хала к гости́нице, встре́тился молодо́й челове́к в бе́лых канифа́совых пантало́нах, весьма́ у́зких и коро́тких, во фра́ке с покуше́ньями на мо́ду, из-под кото́рого видна́ была́ мани́шка, застёгнутая ту́льскою була́вкою с бро́нзовым пистоле́том.
      Da ješčó, kogdá bríčka podʺjéxala k gostínice, vstrétilsja molodój čelovék v bélyx kanifásovyx pantalónax, vesʹmá úzkix i korótkix, vo fráke s pokušénʹjami na módu, iz-pod kotórovo vidná bylá maníška, zastjógnutaja túlʹskoju bulávkoju s brónzovym pistolétom.
      Moreover, just as the chaise drove up to the hotel it was met by a young man in extremely short and narrow white canvas trousers, in a coat with ​fashionable cut-away tails and a shirt-front fastened with a Tula breastpin adorned with a bronze pistol.
