Ivan Trophimovich Rjabinin, a peasant rhapsodist, is the sensation of the day in Moscow. Russians of all classes, mer- chants, officials, ladies, students, as well as mujiks, flock to hear him recite their national epics. He is a man of about fifty, @ fisherman by trade, of medium height and not strongly made, with dark hair and beard, streaked with gray, his hands knot- ted, end his face furrowed by his hard oo- cupation. He wears the long black caftan and the high boots characteristic of the Russian peasant dress; In appearance he is nothing but a mujik. He rises before his audience, twisting a rag of handker- chief between his hands, and 8a; “Gos- poda, I will | you now a bilin! (epic), ‘or, as we call it, a starinka (old-world gong), about Il'Ja Muromets and Philomel, the robber.” He then sits down again and begins to chant the episode in a reg- ulated, melodious tone, telling how Ul’. of Murom fights with Philomel, and kilis him, setting free the road on which t robber had levied blackmail. The songs have come down by word of mouth from father to son for centuries, as were the old Homeric stories in Greece till _put in lit- erary form, or the stories of Roland and Arthur and Charlemagne in the middle ages. The Russian peasants who preserve these epics have never been serfs; they liye in the far north, Rjabinin coming from the village of Garnitsa, in the government of Olonets, four hundred miles north of St. Petersburg. It 1s strange to hear these singers, who live In land of thick pine woods and swamps, sing of “the wide- stretchin plain,” “the waving feather grass,” “the gray old oaks,” and all the features of the southern climate, which neither they nor their fathers have seen.
