Тут Иван Игнатьич заметил, что проговорился, и закусил язык. Но уже было поздно. Василиса Егоровна принудила его во всём признаться, дав ему слово не рассказывать о том никому (Пушкин 2). "The Lord is merciful: we have enough soldiers and plenty of powder, and I've cleaned out the cannon. With a little luck we'll drive back Pugachev...." "And what sort of a man is Pugachev?" asked the captain's wife. Ivan Ignatich now realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, and he bit his tongue. But it was too late. Vasilisa Egorovna, giving her word not to pass the secret to anyone, made him reveal the whole thing (2a).

Rebrov could see that Lyalya was tense and worn out from her mother's hostility-this being the fourth day that her mother had given her the silent treatment. The situation would have resolved itself somehow, so he should have kept his mouth shut-but he lost his self-control (1a).
