Language: Russian (Русский)
(S franczuzskogo) «Chto, umerla, zhiva? Potishe govorite, By't` mozhet, udalos` na vremya ej zasnut`…» I kto-to predlozhil: rebyonka prinesite I polozhite ej na grud`! I vot na meste tom, gde prezhde serdce bilos`, Rebyonok s plachem skry'l liczo svoyo… O, esli i teper` ona ne probudilas`, — Vsyo koncheno, molites` za neyo!
