ОглавлениеDiscuss of all Onegin’s virtues
(No doubt) will take too much time,
But which of these had made a fortune,
What were his beliefs in the prime?
What was for him from infant’s years
The work, the suffer and the rest,
What occupied him all the day
Besides the melancholic stay?
It was the tender feels inciting
Hymned in the verses by Nasō[4],
The art the poet suffered for,
By which his stormy time was shining;
From beloved Italy exiled
In the Moldova’s steppes he died.
