G. To the Hungarian coronation. He has to brandish his naked sword towards North, South, East, and West, and thus symbolically to take possession of the land and promise to be a strong defender of the commonwealth. The Duke per- THE OLD SLOVENIAN DEMOCRACY 11 forms this action in the garb of a peasant. The people is inexorable. The Duke must be humbled yet again. He must drink fresh water from the grey Slovene peasant hat as an admonition that his power is of peasant origin and that his life ou...ght to be simple and modest like that of a Slovene peasant.
This unusual wealth of symbols ought to be classified. They are of an economic, democratic, and national character. The ceremony does not take place in a church or palace, but under the open sky. The plain is surrounded by high Alpine mountains, and upon everything there is a touch of Alpine and rural life. A comparison with the Swiss Landgemeinde the meetings of the small Alpine democracies were perhaps not inappro- priate. The ceremony is essentially a rustic one.
