Runic Poems

Old Norwegian

Þurs vældr kvinna kvillu,
kátr værðr fár af illu.

Thurs ("Giant") causes anguish to women,
misfortune makes few men cheerful

Old Icelandic

Þurs er kvenna kvöl
ok kletta búi
ok varðrúnar verr.
Saturnus þengill.

Thurs ("Giant") is torture of women
and cliff-dweller
and husband of a giantess
Saturn's 
thegn
.

Anglo-Saxon

Ðorn byþ ðearle scearp;
ðegna gehwylcum anfeng ys yfyl,
ungemetum reþe manna gehwelcum,
ðe him mid resteð.

The thorn is exceedingly sharp,
an evil thing for any thegn to touch,
uncommonly severe on all who sit among them.
