У меня сидят гости, — заехать не могу. «''Воеводу''» возвращаю, вполне полагаясь на Дальгрена. «''Датскую''» возьму в Питер и оттуда пришлю.<br />
<br />
''Кленовский'' талантлив, хотя глуп. ''Ильинского'' знаю мало. Кажется, и он не бездарен.<br />
<br />
Обнимаю.<br />

I have visitors and can't leave. I'm returning "''[[The Voyevoda (opera)|The Voyevoda]]''", and relying completely on Dahlgren <ref name="note1"/>. I'll take the "''[[Festival Overture on the Danish National Anthem|Danish]]''" to [[Piter]] and send it from there <ref name="note2"/>..<br />
<br />
''Klenovsky'' is talented, although a fool. I don't know ''Ilyinsky'' a little. He doesn't seem inept either <ref name="note3"/>.<br />
<br />
I embrace you.<br />
