(Väimöinen journeys to the place of the dead to find his lost spells.)
He set out to fetch words from Tuoni
(Words of) power from Manala;
Going he stepped firmly,
Went a week through forests of young trees,
A second week through bird cherries, 155
A third week through junipers:
Already appeared the island of Manala,
The hill of Tuoni loomed.
