1.5. An address to a cat from Cunningsburgh

Tue Apr 12, 2011 7:49 pm

Kind of address to a cat

Norn:


Up (åp) aboot de ļōra (< *jōra), gỏit fərə mỏŋa

Old Norse:

Upp um eyrat, gott fyrir munninn.

English:

Up around the ear (with the paw)!
(that is) good for the mouth (= that promises us a lucky catch of fish)
