his life in Siberia.
A letter from Da Loglio got me a warm welcome from the castrato Luinia delightful manwho kept a
splendid table. He was the lover of Colonnathe singerbut their affection seemed to me a tormentfor they
could scarce live together in peace for a single day. At Luini's house I met another castratoMillicoa great
friend of the chief huntsmanNarischkinwho also became one of my friends. This Narischkina pleasant and
a well-informed manwas the husband of the famous Maria Paulovna. It was at the chief huntsman's splendid
table that I met Calogeso Platonow archbishop of Novgorodand then chaplain to the empress. This monk
was a Russianand a master of rusesunderstood Greekand spoke Latin and Frenchand was what would be
called a fine man. It was no wonder that he rose to such a heightas in Russia the nobility never lower
themselves by accepting church dignities.
Da Loglio had given me a letter for the Princess Daschkoffand I took it to her country houseat the distance
of three versts from St. Petersburg. She had been exiled from the capitalbecausehaving assisted Catherine to
ascend the throneshe claimed to share it with her.
I found the princess mourning for the loss of her husband. Sh [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]yilai:
