     ♦ Егорша решил: обстановка неподходящая. В избу к себе Раечку не затащишь, на маслозаводе постоянно вертятся люди, надо, видно, на природу выходить. Листочки, кустики, то-сё, тары-бары-растабары - растает (Абрамов 1). Egorsha decided it was the surroundings that were not conducive. Raechka would not let herself be dragged off to his place, and there was a constant mob of people at the dairy. So obviously she would have to be taken out into the wide-open spaces. The leaves, the bushes, this and that, a little sweet-talking-she'd melt! (1a).
