Pushkin in ' Evgenii Onegine ' wrote:

It is brilliant, poluvozdushna.

To the Bow magic it is obedient,

Tolpoju nymphs it is surrounded,

Costs Istomin: it

One foot concerning a floor,

Drugoju slowly turns,

Both suddenly the jump, and suddenly flies,

Flies, as down from lips Eola;

The camp will twist That, will develop,

And a fast leg a leg beats.
