October 19

Dear P. B.,

A short P.S. to yesterday’s letter, so as not to make you answer questions which have turned out to be erledigt.[1]

We have just received the Parisians’ letters, and at once understood what I wrote to you yesterday that I had not quite understood[2] : namely, your warning to be “wise as serpents” (easier said than done!) and to keep away from the â€œĂ©migrĂ©s”. The tone of the letters is such that it serves as an excellent commentary on your remark, which is now quite clear to me.

Yours,

Petrov
