1849Kalevala (Translation 1988 by Eino Friberg) 6:129-134:
Tuossa nuori Joukahainen / Jo vähän ajattelevi, / Pikkuisen piättelevi: / Käsi käski ampumahan, / Käsi käski, toinen kielti, / Sormet suoniset pakotti.
At these words young Joukahainen / Tried to think the matter over / And it stopped him for a while: / His hands are undecided now, / One says "go", the other "no", / Till his finger muscles ache.
