PUUKARIN PYSÄKKI
”Siitä Pohjolan emäntä syötti, juotti vierahia, syötti suin sulassa voissa, kourin kuorekokkaroissa noita kutsuvierahia, vävyänsä liiatenki. Olipa lohta luotasilla, sivulla sianlihoa, kupit kukkuraisillansa, va’it varpelaitehilla syöä kutsuvierahien ja vävysen liiatenki. Sanoi Pohjolan emäntä: ”Oi sie piika pikkarainen! Tuop’ on tuopilla olutta, kanna kaksikorvaisella noille kutsuvierahille, vävylleni liiatenki!””
Elias Lönnrot, Kalevala (1849)
