One Eye disguises himsen as a refugee
farmhand an goes to farm
of ‘Eavy wi Sup’s brother, Baugi,
an finds nine servants mowing hay.
He teks art a whetstone
from unna his cloak,
offers to sharpen their scythes.
They eagerly agree and attawards
marvel how well their scythes
cut hay. They all say
“That’s finest whetstone
I’ve ever seen.
‘ow much tha want for it?”
One Eye answers “Aye, I’ll
part wi it,
but,” he warns them,
“you must pay a high price.”
He throws stone into the air
an in their scramble
keen blades an scuffle
kill each other.
One Eye then goes to Baugi’s door
says ” Me names Worker o’ Misfortune
an as yon nine farmhands
a yourn av sought
to so basely kill
each other over
a dispute in field
am offerin’ to do
work on all nine.”
“As reward, I’ll Av
a sip of ‘Eavy wi Sup’s mead.”
Baugi says ” I’ve no control of mead
and me bro guards it jealously,
but if tha can perform work o’ nine
men reight
I’ll help thee get some sup on it.”
