      За кустами, прямо против окна, темнела высокая ограда, высокие верхушки деревьев большого сада, облитые и проникнутые лунным светом, глядели из-за неё.
      Za kustami, prjamo protiv okna, temnela vysokaja ograda, vysokije verxuški derevʹjev bolʹšovo sada, oblityje i proniknutyje lunnym svetom, gljadeli iz-za nejó.
