- 1869, Салтыков-Щедрин, Повесть о том, как один мужик двух генералов прокормил; English translation from How a Muzhik Fed Two Officials, New York: Modern Library, 1925:
- — Кто бы мог думать, ваше превосходительство, что человеческая пища, в первоначальном виде, летает, плавает и на деревьях растёт? — сказал один генерал.
— Да, — отвечал другой генерал, — признаться, и я до сих пор думал, что булки в том самом виде родятся, как их утром к кофею подают!- — Kto by mog dumatʹ, vaše prevosxoditelʹstvo, što čelovečeskaja pišča, v pervonačalʹnom vide, letajet, plavajet i na derevʹjax rastjót? — skazal odin general.
— Da, — otvečal drugoj general, — priznatʹsja, i ja do six por dumal, što bulki v tom samom vide rodjatsja, kak ix utrom k kofeju podajut! - "The human pabulum in its original form flies, swims and grows on trees. Who would have thought it your Excellency?" said the one Official.
"To be sure," rejoined the other Official. "I, too, must admit that I had imagined that our breakfast rolls came into the world just as they appear on the table."
- — Kto by mog dumatʹ, vaše prevosxoditelʹstvo, što čelovečeskaja pišča, v pervonačalʹnom vide, letajet, plavajet i na derevʹjax rastjót? — skazal odin general.
