Examples from texts

He invites me to Moscow in order to prove his assertion, and show me his leg's tomb, and the very cannon that shot him; he says it's the eleventh from the gate of the Kremlin, an old-fashioned falconet taken from the French afterwards."
В доказательство же зовет в Москву, чтобы показать и могилу, и даже ту самую французскую пушку в Кремле, попавшую в плен; уверяет, что одиннадцатая от ворот, французский фальконет прежнего устройства.
