pisateljica, navajo kot njihovo
najznacajnejso lastnost, da so

nejsi slovanski narod, XII pa ie

majhnemu stevilu uspel, da o.
hrani svojo narodnost in zavest,
da mu v zilah tece slovanska in
ne germanska kri. Kljub svoje-
mu izpostavljenemu polozaju in
stoletja trajajocemu preganja-
nju strani sovraznih in mogoc-
nih sosedov, je ohranil svoj ma
rodni ponos-ponos, XII je danes
