Example

» Na, und ich habe sie auch nicht «, fiel der alte Fürst ein. » Als ich im Ausland war und dort die Zeitungen las, da habe ich, offen gestanden, noch vor den bulgarischen Greueln schlechterdings nicht begreifen können, weshalb alle Russen auf einmal ihre slawischen Brüder so liebgewonnen hatten und ich für meine Person gar keine Liebe zu ihnen empfand.' Nor do I, ' said the Prince. ' I was living abroad and read the papers, and must own that I could not at all understand why, even before the Bulgarian atrocities, all Russians suddenly grew so fond of their Slavonic brothers, while I don 't feel any love for them.OP1013996
