Where it stands
А Москва город большой. And Moscow is a big city.
Со звездой тут ребята не ходят и на клирос петь никого не пущают, а раз я видал в одной лавке на окне крючки продаются прямо с леской и на всякую рыбу, очень стоющие, даже такой есть один крючок, что пудового сома удержит. The lads don't go round with the star here and they don't let anybody sing in the church choir, and once in a shop window I saw hooks for sale, sold right along with the line and for every kind of fish, very much worth the money, there is even one hook that would hold a sheatfish weighing a whole pood.
И видал которые лавки, где ружья всякие на манер бариновых, так что небось рублей сто кажное… And I saw some shops where there are guns of every sort like the master's, so I dare say they cost a hundred roubles apiece…
