Eugene Onegin ( without commentary )

XVIII

"Here in the winter the late Lenski, our neighbor, used to dine with him. This way, please, follow me. 4 This was the master's study; he used to sleep here, take his coffee, listen to the steward's reports, and in the morning read a book… 8 And the old master lived here too; on Sundays, at this window here, time was, donning his spectacles, he'd deign to play 'tomfools' with me. 12 God grant salvation to his soul and peace to his dear bones in the grave, in damp mother earth!"
