The hours once more Onegin counts, + 

Impatient waits the close of day, + 

But ten strikes and his sledge he mounts + 

And gallops to her house away. + 

Trembling he seeks the young princess⁠— + 

Tattiana finds in loneliness. + 

Together moments one or two + 

They sat, but conversation’s flow + 

Deserted Eugene. He, distraught, + 

Sits by her gloomily, desponds, + 

Scarce to her questions he responds, + 

Full of exasperating thought. + 

He fixedly upon her stares⁠— + 

She calm and unconcerned appears. + 
