Footnote

1

From “To Chaadaev” by Aleksandr Pushkin, written in 1818 and addressed to Pushkin’s friend Pyotr Yakovlevich Chaadaev — one of the poems that contributed to Pushkin’s disgrace and exile. In this version the writer has replaced “a star” with the revolutionary commonplace of “dawn” in the first line of the excerpt, and “our names” with “your names” in the last line.
