#novgorod
The oldest known Russian love letter.
This remarkable document was found in the form of two scraps that were found on the pavement. An addressee, having no fire or knife nearby, tore up and threw away the latter. But he didn’t just scatter these pieces, he tied them in a knot and only then threw them on the pavement.
[…] [I sent (?)] to you three times. What kind of grudge you owe to me, that you haven’t come to me this Sunday (week)? I have treated you like a brother! Did I hurt you by sending … [you messages]. As I can see, you don’t like it. If you like it, you would tear yourself away from the eyes (of others) and come running (to me) […].
[…] now somewhere else. Write to me about […] leave you? (Do you want me to leave you?/I won’t leave you or something like that). And even if I’ve hurt you with my foolishness, if you will laugh at me, God will judge (you) and I will.
Birch bark manuscript №752, Novgorod, 1100-1125.
