Note Czech folk poetry (from K.J. Erben's compilation).
Two independent triads of female choruses: first was composed on Christmas 1930 in Paris, probably under the title "Prostonárodní české písně a říkadla" (Czech Folk Songs and Nursery Rhymes). The second triad called "Staročeská říkadla" (Old Czech Nursery Rhymes) was composed by Martinů before 27.7.1931 in Paris (source: Zdeněk Zouhar, Panton edition, 1984).
