Note 1 — A Poor Man and a Woman
H. (Henry) Parker translation
When not much time had gone in this manner, being unable to pound and eat, her strength and ability [to work] went. Thereupon she one day having beaten the man with the broom,1 and having said, “Strumpet’s son, bring thou from somewhere or other things for food,” seized him by the hair-knot, and cast him out of the door-way.
