The archive’s description
Written by the editors of the SKVR type index and quoted as it stands, in Finnish.
Ydinaihe, lapsena laulaminen, ilmaistaan kahdenlaisena, toisiinsa paikoin sekoittuvana formulana: 1) Lauloin ennen lapsempana, pieksin kieltä pienempänä (jatkuu usein En rahatta laula-aiheella, ks. Laulajan palkka), 2) Lauloin ennen, taisin ennen, muulloin muitakin opetin (V, IX, XIII; jatkuu usein erilaisilla nyt en enää laula-säkeillä (esim. >Jo on laulut lauenneet). Paraske jatkaa: silloin huusin hupeluuttain, nyt huolissain.
