Gold ar for aðalkóna,
gold is for the noblewoman

sylfur for magædinni,
silver for the maiden

ǽr ar for skillmænnennað
copper is for the artsman

lernt i skillni af sækkar
learned in the trade of hisself

Góð! var segður úr jarla,
Good! was said by the Earl,

hvað gasætt i hølla þess,
who sat in hall his

ut ésarn, kald ésarnǽ
but iron, the cold iron

ar lǽrðyrni alþára
is the master all theirs

 
Gold is for the mistress,
silver for the maid, 
Copper for the craftsman, 
cunning at his trade. 
Good! Said the baron, 
while sitting in his hall, 
But Iron, Cold Iron, 
is master of them all." 
- Kipling
