The article about the runic verse in general and Vepsian runic verse in particular weighs the reasons why the Veps and especially southern Estonians preserved their song material, yet could not achieve the form of the runic verse.

The article tackles short forms of folklore in one of Estonian regions – Virumaa. The discussion maps the close ties that exist between old parishes in terms of folk material, characterised by archaic and dialectal traits as well as by a strong influence from the traditional folk songs in runo verse (regilaul). Another regional characteristic is the influence of kindred peoples who once lived in the same area as well as from neighbouring peoples. The proverbs and sayings display a richness of unique expressions but also the first mentions of well-known Estonian traditional expressions. Next to folk sayings, humour related to neighbours as well as pejorative sayings based on place names are also discussed, with a specific focus on regional characteristics.
