«В смятенье нежного стыда,
Он только смеет иногда,
Улыбкой Ольги ободренный,
Развитым локоном играть
Иль край одежды целовать» (4, XXV, 94).
“Confused with tender shame the while
(Encouraged, though, by Olga’s smile),
He sometimes even dares to cover
One loosened curl with soft caress
Or kiss the border of her dress” (Chapter 4, Stanza 25, Page 94).
