The author presents two Threnodies by Jan Kochanowski, No. VI and No. VII. He argues that the texts, mainly due to their metaphors, are linked and in a way “united”. The dead girl, Orszula, the heroine of both poems, is shown as a bride leaving the parents’ house with her groom: Death. The author, making references to the Mediterranean tradition, wonders why such a peculiar and surprising combination of death and wedding ceremony appeared and tries to understand what the meaning of such a combination is.
