Leírás a 11 -es képről 11.—Two young Gypsy girls, and between them a little boy, engaged in singing the Papa-roiida, under the direction of an old woman. Bucharest. This photograph was executed at Bucharest, in 1869, by my orders, from the group who sung the Papa-rouda before my house. — I. K. (Photographed by Carol Szathmari, Bucharest.) At the arrival of spring, it is the custom in Roumania, Servia, and Bulgaria for a group of Gypsy children, quite alone, or under the guidance of a woman or an older girl, themselves only halfclad or actually naked, and having their heads and loins wreathed about with green branches of wild plants, to go from one house to another, before each of which they dance and sing (as they dance) a certain song. This song is called ' Papa-roiida' from these words, which are repeated at the end of every strophe. The language employed is the language of the countrj'. When the song and the dance are finished, some person emerges from the house with a can of water, and then, after pouring the water over the singers, gives them one or two small coins and sends them away.
