Onegin envies a councilman from Tula who is lying paralized:

Зачем, как тульский заседатель,
Я не лежу в параличе?

Why like a councilman from Tula
am I not lying paralized?
(Fragments of Onegin's Journey: [XIV]: 9-10)

Chekhov's friend and correspondent L. V. Sredin (1860-1909; see my post "Tornikovski & Kalikakov") was lying paralyzed in the last ten (or more) years of his life.
