Abstract
This article discusses two anonymous 18th-century Belarusian satirical poems of a political nature, discovered by Adam Maldzis in Vilnius. These works, written towards the end of the Seven Years’ War (1756–1763), are parodies of Russian military songs and contain clear anti-Russian undertones.
