And his father to death have fared;

Memory-stones | seldom stand by the road

Save when kinsman honors his kin.

[73]. Two make a battle, | the tongue slays the head;

In each furry coat | a fist I look for.

[a]74]. He welcomes the night | whose fare is enough.

(Short are the yards of a ship,)

Uneasy are autumn nights;

Full oft does the weather | change in a week,

And more in a month’s time.
