A fragmentary poem recalls a venerable toast at a knightly gathering. The walls echo with song and ritual vows as lovers kneel, cups raised, and a chosen name is honorably pledged, with deep emotion and reverent lines of devotion.
A grim tale unfolds in a Wilna region house where a robber, a rednosed brigand, traps Dana Avdotya Yeremeyevna with threats and robbery.
