Ne naprasno my chitali bogoslovov i u ritorov uchilis' nedarom, my znajem znachen'e kazhdogo slova i vsjo mozhem tolkovat' sedmiobrazno. Mogu najti chetyre dobrodeteli v tvojom tele i sem' grekhov, konechno; i okhotno voz'mu sebe blazhenstva; no iz vsekh slov odno neizmenno: kogda smotrju v tvoi serye ochi i govorju: "Ljublju" - vsjakij ritor pojmet tol'ko "ljublju" - i nichego bol'she.
