Summary/Abstract: In its composition and message the paper uses the form of the diptych. Part One is a philological and cultural exegesis of one verse of My Homeland by Cyprian Norwid that is focused on the interpretation of the poetic expression “David's key has opened my mouth”. Part Two contains a memory of the author's personal meetings with Professor Marian Maciejewski held on the ground of Polish studies. The whole is crowned by fascination with the phenomenon of Norwid that is common for the whole circle of the Catholic University of Lublin.
