Give me your consent to take the trouble to arrange this matter for you! In my opinion this &amp;#039;&amp;#039;simply must&amp;#039;&amp;#039; be done. I guarantee your success! By God, it&amp;#039;s a sin to bury your talent in the ground in the prime of life. How I would like to talk with you in person about all this! Perhaps, God willing, my trip to [[Tiflis]] can be arranged, and I&amp;#039;ll come and see you with an official proposal from the Directorate. I only need you to express your consent in writing to my efforts to arrange the engagement. &lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

But to tell the truth, it is [[Anatoly]] himself who is to blame for it all. He is the kindest and sweetest fellow, but with a most irritable and restless character. He ought not to have left the judiciary because of Smitten. &lt;/ins&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

Ваше длинное, страшно интересное, милейшее письмо получил и прочёл с невыразимым удовольствием. Одно только мне не нравится. Неужели в самом деле Вы не хотите больше петь на сцене? Послушайте: согласитесь в будущем &amp;#039;&amp;#039;весеннем сезоне гастролировать&amp;#039;&amp;#039; в Москве или Петербурге. Дайте мне разрешение хлопотать и устроить Вам это дело! По-моему, это &amp;#039;&amp;#039;просто необходимо&amp;#039;&amp;#039; сделать. Я ручаюсь Вам за успех! Ей-Богу, грешно в цвете лет зарывать свой талант в землю! Как бы мне хотелось устно поговорить с Вами об этом! Авось, Бог даст, моя поездка в Тифлис устроится, я Вас увижу и приеду к Вам с официальным предложением дирекции. Мне нужно только, чтобы Вы письменно изъявили согласие на хлопоты по устройству ангажемента.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Я побывал в Москве, видел превосходную выставку к встретился в первопрестольной с г[осподином] ревельским вице-губернатором, Мне жаль его, и я очень печалюсь за него и за бедную Парашу. Обоим им тяжело будет привыкать после Тифлиса к чухонскому Ревелю. Но нужно правду сказать, что во всем Анатолий сам виноват. Это добрейший и милейший человек, но с очень раздражительным и беспокойным характером. Не следовало ему из-за Смиттена уходить из судебного ведомства.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Работа моя понемногу подвигается. Живу тихо, спокойно, хорошо. Если ничего особенного не произойдёт, надеюсь к осени кончить балет и оперу и зимой заняться инструментовкой. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Я забыл в письме к Мише ответить на вопрос его о размере гонорара с Гутхейля. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Чем больше, тем лучше&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Церемониться с ним нечего: он очень богат.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Целую Ваши ручки. Обнимаю Мишу. Целую Тату. Мамаше и милой Анне Михайловне усердно кланяюсь.&lt;br /&gt;
