Summary/Abstract: The topic of the literary personalism of the famous quartet from "Misal" is extensively commented in the Bulgarian literary science. The present text offers a hypothesis that dialogues with those already formulated about the unreal exile of Pencho Slaveykov in Italy in 1912, when, on Lake Como, in Brunate, he ended his earthly journey. The metaphorical experience of the mountain Brunate as a "tomb with windows", a famous poetic metaphor from "Psalm of the Poet", to which Pencho aspires is a plot in which Mara Belcheva is actively involved - the main pillar in his life and work. The text reflects on the female point of view in this dramatic story, the occasion of which is a public scandal loudly provoked by the poet.
