2. I interpret this fable as you should always try new things in life and never have a dull life they start of this poem with them talking about trying new things and that archpriest went to experience the mountains which the poem said was foolish. The Apostle decrees that people should try new things.

1. I think that main themes in this poem are mystery and love. They start the poem off with the archpriest going into the mountains and trying new things this is very strange. It also starts off weird when the archpriest finds the cowgirl in the mountains and doesn't let him pass unless he pays the fee and if the doesn't he will get stripped instantly.
