Alexander Trifonovich Tvardovsky. Vasily Terkin (№ 299603)

- No, not the chock and not the barrel
Just looking ripped.
- Not a swimmer do alone?
Just kidding, brother. Water is not the same!
- Yes, water... scary to Think.
Even the fish cold.
- Not from our yesterday
What has risen from the bottom?..
Both at once subdued.
Said one soldier:
- No, he drifted in his coat,
Full gear, dead man.
Both are great chilled,
Whatever it was, - the first time.
