    • 1925, Михаил Булгаков, “Глава 2. Цветной завиток”, in Роковые яйца; English translation from K. M. Cook-Horujy, transl., The Fateful Eggs, Moscow: Raduga Publishers, 1990:
      Он дрожащими пальцами нажал кнопку, и чёрные глухие шторы закрыли утро, и в кабинете ожила мудрая учёная ночь.
      On drožaščimi palʹcami nažal knopku, i čórnyje gluxije štory zakryli utro, i v kabinete ožila mudraja učónaja nočʹ.
      With trembling fingers he pressed a button, dense black shutters blotted out the morning and a wise scholarly night descended on the room.
