Не можешь ли оказать мне следующую услугу. Пришли мне с почтой или как заблагорассудишь мою «''Ундину''» {{*}}, она мне ''крайне'' нужна; чем скорее ты это сделаешь, тем более я буду тебе благодарен.
{{right|Твой, П. Чайковский}}
P. S. Жду с нетерпением 1) моих романсов; 2) уведомления а получении клавираусцуга; 3) интродукции и антрактов моей оперы (танцев, пожалуй, не нужно, у меня нашёлся черновой фортепьянный проект, совершенно достаточный); 4) ответа на моё последнее письмо.
