long before, a storm fared to kvintlat

øln seiktur hafn i vaggna, ǽn møður lǽft ut þǿgg.
all sought haven in the walls, a man remained out though

kǽles farð þveo og þætt veskt hvi þeo lǽft.
kahless went to him and he asked why he remained

<<Akk færa ney>> mænnrinn segð
"i fear not" the man said

<<akk skal bjarga ney grimm minn i stǽnn og i lim.
"i shall shelter not my face in stone and mortar

Akk skal standa før vændǽ og þo skal ægir mikk>>
i shall stand before the wind and it shall respect me"

kǽles ægirt þeos kyrt og þætt farð i til vaggna.
kahless respected his choice and he went in to the walls

styrmrinn ga daggoftra og mænnrinn var deyt
the storm came dayafter and the man was dead

sva vændǽ ægirna ǽn dolt.
as the wind respects not a fool
