Сторінка 76 - The first years of our life here were bitter ones, but I will not dwell on those sad memories to-day, on the losses we suffered, nor the dear, sweet departed children, whose pictures are engraved in our hearts with such deep sorrow.

Сторінка 51 - No open blow in an open fight, But with quips and with quirks they arraign me, By creeping treachery's secret blight The Western Calmucks have slain me. The fatal shaft in the dark did fly; I was struck by an ambushed knave; And here in the pride of my strength I lie, Like a corpse of a rebel brave ! With a deathless scorn in my dying breath, In my hand the sword still cherished; "Rebellion" still for my shout of death, In my manhood untainted, I perished.
Сторінка 80 - I felt as though I were a hippopotamus, belonging, rather to the Zoological Garden than to the Caucasian race. But do not let me frighten you too much. My appearance has improved quite a little, and the scars are beginning to heal. I had scarcely recovered sufficiently to be able to leave my bed, when my dearly beloved Karl took sick. Excessive fear, anxiety and vexations of every sort and description threw him upon his sick bed. For the first time, his chronic liver trouble had become acute. But,...
Сторінка 51 - Three salvoes to honour my bier. And the tattered poor man takes his stand On my head the cold sods heaving! He casts them down with a diligent hand, : .- Where the glory of toil is cleaving. And a garland of flowers and May he brought On my burning wounds to cast; His wife and his daughters the wreath had wrought, When the work of the day was past.

Сторінка 81 - My girls send their heartiest greetings and kisses to your dear children — one Laura greets the other — and I kiss each one of them in spirit. To you, my dear friend, I send my warmest regards. May you remain brave and unshaken in these days of trial. The world belongs to the courageous. Continue to be the strong, faithful support of your dear husband and remain elastic in mind and body, the true ' unrespected ' comrade of your dear children, and let me hear from you again at your first opportunity....
