Rune XVII. Wainamoinen Finds the Lost-word.
WAINAMOINENold and truthful
Did not learn the words of magic
In Tuoni's gloomy regions
In the kingdom of Manala.
Thereupon he long debated
Well consideredlong reflected

When a shepherd came to meet him
Speaking thus to Wainamoinen:

Find a thousand wisdom-sayings
In the mouth of wise Wipunen
In the body of the hero;
To the spot I know the foot-path
To his tomb the magic highway

On the sharpened points of needles;
Then a long way thou must journey
On the edges of the broadswords;
Thirdly thou must travel farther
On the edges of the hatchets.

Well considered all these journeys
Travelled to the forge and smithy

Forge me gloves of burnished copper
Mold a staff of strongest metal
