Remember we must all go the way the lamented one has gone. Don't 114 SERVIA AND THE SERVIANS anger God. May He grant life to those who remain to thee ! " In towns " the banquets for the soul " are not kept, but on those five occasions the mourning family takes out to the grave of the deceased : boiled wheatj rice boiled in milk, all sorts of cakes and viands (especially such as the deceased, while in life, used to hke), fruit, wine, whisky, etc., and distributes them there to the beggars, gipsi...es and other poor, who flock to the church- yards with big bags into which they throw all they get, repeating all the time the formula : " Bog da prosti ! " (May God grant His forgiveness).
In the village churchyards — one of which is shown in the annexed photo — the strange taU crosses (or rather, a combination of triangles and crosses, the triangles probably dating from the pagan times) are generally decorated by all sorts of ribbons (for girls), neckties, hand-towels or handkerchiefs. The peasants believe that what- ever you distribute on the grave, or attach and bind to the cross of the grave, wiU be actually received by the deceased person in that other world.
