Stekkjastaur kom fyrstur,
stinnur eins og tré.
Hann laumaðist í fjárhúsin
og lék á bóndans fé.
Hann vildi sjúga ærnar,
- þá var þeim ekki um sel,
því greyið hafði staurfætur,
- það gekk nú ekki vel.
The first of them was Sheep-Cote Clod.
He came stiff as wood,
to pray upon the farmer´s sheep
as far as he could.
He wished to suck the ewes,
but it was no accident
he couldn´t; he had stiff knees
- not to convenient.
