XXXVIII

Good-by, witness of fallen glory, Petrovskiy Castle. Hup! Don't stop, get on! The turnpike posts already 4 show white. Along Tverskaya Street the coach now hies across the dips. There flicker by: watch boxes, peasant women, urchins, shops, street lamps, 8 palaces, gardens, monasteries, Bokharans, sledges, kitchen gardens, merchants, small shacks, muzhiks, boulevards, towers, Cossacks, 12 pharmacies, fashion shops, balconies, lions on the gates, and flocks of jackdaws on the crosses.
