         ♦ Я помню растерянный вид Мандельштама, когда мы вернулись домой, поглядев, как происходит изъятие [церковного имущества]... Предложение [патриарха] Тихона [организовать помощь голодающим] отклонили, а теперь вопят, что церковники не жалеют голодающих и прячут свои сокровища. Одним ударом убивали двух зайцев: загребали золото и порочили церковников (Мандельштам 2). I remember the appalled look on M[andelstam]'s face as we returned home after watching the "confiscation" [of church property] for a while....[Patriarch] Tikhon's proposal [to organize aid for the starving] had been turned down, and now they were shrieking that the church people had no pity for the starving and were hoarding their treasures. In this way they were killing two birds with one stone: while vilifying the church, they were also grabbing its gold (2a).
