Бедненький! А я как раз перед получением твоего письма думал о тебе и даже помышлял не послать ли малую толику? Твоё письмо не лишено остроумия, но недостаточно подробно. Помилуй, — ведь это невероятно интересно, т. е. как, почему и что, и в каких выражениях тебе велели серьёзно! Пожалуйста пиши мне поподробнее. Доложи, что как скоро пожелаешь. Когда будешь в Москве? Не навестишь ли меня здесь? Посылаю только 25 р[ублей] да и {{...}} придётся занимать у меня теперь ни шиша.<br />
<br />
Обнимаю,<br />

You poor thing! Can you believe that just prior to receiving your letter <ref name="note1"/> I happened to think about you, and even considered sending you a tiny sum? Your letter is not devoid of wit, but it's lacking in detail. Forgive me, because it's incredibly interesting, namely, how, wherefore, why and what terms can you seriously expect! Please write to me in detail. Report back when you want. When will you be in [[Moscow]]? Could you not come and see me here? I'm sending 25 rubles {{...}} <ref name="note2"/> have to borrow, I haven't even a kopek just now.<br />
<br />
I hug you,<br />
