The English poem turns it into a torch, a clear flame burning in the hall. A fever and a flame both burn from inside. The old charms knew where such sickness could come from. An Old English charm against sudden, stabbing pain blames it on elves shooting arrows into the body. The charm orders them back out: \"Out, little spear, if you are in here.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe poems\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnglish Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eTorch is to every living one\u003cbr\u003eknown by its fire,\u003cbr\u003epale and bright;\u003cbr\u003eit burns most often\u003cbr\u003ewhere the nobles\u003cbr\u003erest within.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIcelandic Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eSore is children's misfortune,\u003cbr\u003eand scourge,\u003cbr\u003eand house of rotting flesh.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNorwegian Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eSore is the bane of children;\u003cbr\u003emisfortune makes a corpse pale.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSwedish Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eSore is worst in the flesh.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003c!-- notionvc: 80189a53-24fa-448e-89c4-45018957ca8e --\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"Einarr's Journey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67941265113363,"sku":"EJ-KC-006","price":12.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/4785\/5123\/files\/kaunan-elder-futhark-rune-handmade-leather-keychain.webp?v=1793826305"},{"product_id":"gebo-leather-runic-keychain","title":"Gebo Leather Runic Keychain","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e£12.95 Each – Any 2 for £20 (Offer Includes Bracelets)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003eGive your keys a \u003c\/span\u003eworthy companion\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e with this handcrafted leather rune keychain,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e bearing the Elder Futhark rune – Gebo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eName\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA gift, and the giving of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMeaning\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA gift is never only given.

It holds everything together: friends and kin, leaders and followers, and people and the powers they offer to. In Rúnatál a sacrifice to the Æsir follows the same rule. Life itself began as a gift.

The Icelandic stanza adds summer and ripe fields, and the English poem has the earth feed rich and poor alike. The year is the reward of the turning seasons, never taken for granted. The Norwegian poem names Fróði, the Danish king whose reign was one long peace, while two jotun women ground gold and plenty from his mill Grotti. On the Stentoften stone a single rune is enough to say it: Haþwulf gave a good year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe poems\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnglish Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eYear is the hope of men,\u003cbr\u003ewhen God,\u003cbr\u003eholy king of heaven,\u003cbr\u003elets the earth give\u003cbr\u003ebright fruits\u003cbr\u003eto the noble and the needy.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIcelandic Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eYear is the good of men,\u003cbr\u003eand a good summer,\u003cbr\u003eand a field grown full.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNorwegian Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eYear is the good of men;\u003cbr\u003eI say that Fróði was generous.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSwedish Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eYear is the widest leafing.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003c!-- notionvc: 62bbb5a8-bbed-4b36-a9d7-85bf51713d6e --\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- notionvc: be648222-0d47-4975-8a01-d655d036cc46 --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- notionvc: 96ec8db4-40ab-47fd-a930-26e2b37d34a0 --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Einarr's Journey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67941309743379,"sku":"EJ-KC-012","price":12.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/4785\/5123\/files\/jera-elder-futhark-rune-handmade-leather-keychain.webp?v=1793826245"},{"product_id":"eihwaz-leather-runic-keychain","title":"Eihwaz Leather Runic Keychain","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e£12.95 Each – Any 2 for £20 (Offer Includes Bracelets)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003eGive your keys a \u003c\/span\u003eworthy companion\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e with this handcrafted leather rune keychain,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e bearing the Elder Futhark rune – Eihwaz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eName\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA yew tree, the dark evergreen that lives for centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMeaning\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe poems see the yew as a tree that endures: hard on the outside, held fast by its roots, good for keeping a fire, green through winter, and strong enough to bend into a bow.

The answer may lie in how the birch grows: cut it down, and it sprouts again from the stump and the roots. Birch is the first tree to leaf in spring and the first to take bare ground, and when the ice withdrew after the last ice age, birch led the first forests of the North. After the wolf runs and the world ends, Völuspá sees the earth come up a second time out of the sea, green again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe poems\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnglish Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eBirch is without fruit,\u003cbr\u003eyet it bears all the same\u003cbr\u003eshoots without seed;\u003cbr\u003eit is lovely in its branches,\u003cbr\u003ehigh in its crown,\u003cbr\u003efairly adorned,\u003cbr\u003eladen with leaves,\u003cbr\u003ereaching to the sky.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIcelandic Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eBirch is a leafy branch,\u003cbr\u003eand a little tree,\u003cbr\u003eand young wood\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNorwegian Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eBirch is the greenest-leaved\u003cbr\u003eof branches;\u003cbr\u003eLoki brought the time of deceit.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSwedish Rune Poem.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eBirch is greenest grove.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c!-- notionvc: 6049de2e-a15e-4d0a-87d1-53f41436bf9b --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- notionvc: be648222-0d47-4975-8a01-d655d036cc46 --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- notionvc: 96ec8db4-40ab-47fd-a930-26e2b37d34a0 --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Einarr's Journey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67941342413075,"sku":"EJ-KC-018","price":12.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/4785\/5123\/files\/berkana-elder-futhark-rune-handmade-leather-keychain.webp?v=1793826305"},{"product_id":"ehwaz-leather-runic-keychain","title":"Ehwaz Leather Runic Keychain","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e£12.95 Each – Any 2 for £20 (Offer Includes Bracelets)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003eGive your keys a \u003c\/span\u003eworthy companion\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e with this handcrafted leather rune keychain,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e bearing the Elder Futhark rune – Ehwaz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eName\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA horse, above all a fine riding horse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMeaning\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly the English poem keeps this rune, and it sees the horse as a mark of standing: something the nobles take pride in and talk about, and a steady help to anyone who cannot stay still.
