Runo 45 'The Pestilence'

Runo 37 'Ilmainen Gold and Silver Bride'

Runo 23 just finished. "The Teaching of the Bride"... :-p

Runo 21. Becoming slightly annoyed by Friberg's translation of 'tuomi' as 'chokecherry' instead of 'bird cherry'. Chokecherry is a native American tree whilst bird cherry grows in Scandinavia north of the Arctic Circle. Given that the references are in Pohjola, this is fairly relevant.

Runo 19
