A. S. Kline:  * * * From the pool of light, suddenly, you slipped out in a thin shawl — we disturbed no one at all, roused not a servant from sleep… 1908 (transl. ?)

Osip Mandelstam:  * * * Из полутёмной залы, вдруг, Ты выскользнула в легкой шали — Мы никому не помешали, Мы не будили спящих слуг... 1908
