Abstract

The author focuses on the last large work by F. Glinka "Mysterious Drop" (1861) dedicated to the matters of religion. Special features are analyzed of the poetic version of the apocryphal story about a robber who shrived on the cross and got to heaven. The conclusion is that the semantic core of the poem is Lord's Prayer made in hexameter. This meter is used nowhere else in the polirhythmic structure of the poem. A rhymed prayer with rhythmic accents plays a special harmonizing role in the artistic concept of the universe.
