Zhukovsky should be ashamed of himself; how am I worse than Princess Charlotte, that he should not write me a line in three years. Is it true that he is translating the Giaour? And I, at my leisure, am writing a new poem, Yevgeny Onegin, in which I am choking on my own bile. Two cantos are already done.

Pushkin to Alexander Ivanovich Turgenev, December 1823
