VERSES ON GOOD MORALS
The most famous work of morals of the Baroque poet Hugolín Gavlovič "Valaská škola mravúv stodola" was written in a beautiful setting of White Carpathian cliffs on a place where now stands the gamekeeper’s cottage Chrástková. The poet was treated here for a lung disease that caused him a lot of trouble. Gavlovič mentioned his treatment right in the introduction of his famous work where he writes that the work had been written "at the sheepfold of the enlightened master, Count Xaverius Konigsegg ... under the Vršatec mansion and at Chrástková" where the author had to "drink sheep’s whey" to improve his health. Here, near the village of Pruské, in the mountains under Vršatec, at the shepherd’s cottage among simple people and shepherds the author spent forty-three years. Here Hugolín become familiar with and admired the wisdom of the common people who inspired him to write his works.
„Této verše k dobrým mravúm skrátka vyučujú, navyklé k samopašnosti srdce ukrocujú.
I ty múžeš sobe velký úžitek z nich vzíti, jestli od zlého k dobrému dáš se nakloniti.“
