AT EASTER
Martha Dickinson Bianchi translation
Drawing near the Easter Sunday With the Easter-greeting kiss; When I come, remember Dora— Not alone we suffer this! Then, as were it for the first time— Kiss thou me and I kiss thee; Thou with modest eyelids downcast, I with but ill stifled glee!
MAIKOW.
The religious custom of the Easter-greeting kiss prevails throughout Russia.
