The archive’s description
Written by the editors of the SKVR type index and quoted as it stands, in Finnish.
Aamutoimia ja tehdessään ja siivotessaan nuorikon on huomioitava lapset: Sie kun lattian lakaset, älä lapsii lakase; Pese silmät, pää siloita (vrt. Pese perheen silmät); Kui on lapsi permannolla, nosta lapsi laavitsalla, anna leipää kättee, pane voita leivän päälle; Ku ei leivosta talossa, anna lastui kättee . Kälynkin lapsia on kohdeltava hyvin: Kälyn lapsi lattialla, älä käännä kättä poikki, käännä leipää kätteen! Pari kertaa kehotus kohdistetaan leskimiehelle menevälle (esim. IV 3128).
