• The paper is devoted to the textual analysis of the sermon »Sincere Encouragement to True Repentance and Prayer« (Věrné probuzení k pravému pokání a modlení), presented by Bohuslav Mezibrodský in the community of Lowland Slovak evangelicals in the village of Eška (Hungarian Öskü) in September 1749. The subject of the sermon is an unusual natural phenomenon – the arrival of locusts, which caused existential fears among the inhabitants and caused huge confusion among them. The same subject was elaborated by Matej Markovič senior in the poetic composition »The Mourning Song about the Grasshoppers« (Smutná pieseň o kobylkách, 1749), the analysis of which will serve us as a model.
