Summary/Abstract: The preserved exempla in glagolitic literature represent an exceptional and little known fragment of the whole, very rich medieval European exempla literary tradition (J. Th. WELTER, 1927). The exempla in the Senjski korizmenjak (Lent Book) belong to the translation of Quaresimale in volgare, of the Franciscan brother Roberto Caraccioli (1425-1495) from Lecce. The Senj exempla reflect Caraccili’s directions of unifying of oral and written literal expression with the Croatian language and glagolitic alphabet dedicated to laics and priests in a popular, interesting and memorable way which supported popular sanctity as well as everyday ethic and communicative relationship between preacher and believers. Of 19 exempla in the Korizmenjak which we transliterated according to systemised norms and we especially concentrated on the 13th which is known in every western European collection of exempla under the title of Ungrateful Son. Our thoughts we concentrated on appearance of the frog and its role and symbolism which it brings to this story.
