Summary/Abstract: This paper is based on the assumption that the texts of older literature (not very attractive and understandable for readers) could be brought nearer to the present-day readers by their new editions, but mainly by their new interpretations. In the interpreted poem, the natural phenomenon (storm) is an indicator of eschatology, the dominant theme of the baroque poetry.
