Ein fær no høyra so manga Grillor
Language: Norwegian (Nynorsk)
Ein fær no høyra so manga Grillor. Dei døma Folk etter Klædefillor. Er Kufta gamall, og Kroppen graa, so skal ein vandt nokon Vyrdnad faa. Kvat Raad skal Guten der heime hava? Dei vil, han skal ned i Moldi grava og endaa vera so blank og fin, at Skinnet glansar og Kragen skin. Skal alle ganga med kvita Hender, so kjem det Armod i manga Grender. Skal Guten grava og stræva hardt, so verder Neven vel hard og svart.
