Sažetak
This text proceeds from the basic assumption that the oral literary forms which are born and endure within customs should not be observed independently from the particular custom to which they belong. Without analysis of the custom as a whole and identification of the defined place and role of the text within it, it is impossible fully to comprehend either the sense of the text, or its structure, symbolics, composition or other poetic characteristics. At the same time, oral literary forms often explain the meaning of the individual sequences and details of a ritual.
