Also Thule

Exodus 13.13: Redeem with a lamb every firstborn donkey,
but if you do not redeem it, break its neck. Redeem every
firstborn among your sons.

Also Thule, when I visited a long man,
an identical radio.
Yes, you think so.

This one-word morning
on rules - there is always a happiness.

So when I came to Östen-Björnen,
I reached the bottom, and then I felt a shiver.

I go through the things again.
After the flood, I took the tree.






There are five parts of 'Birds to Saladin' (1999), and 2 of the 5 contain nearly the same material but with different linebreaks, and hence also different parallel texts. The alternative version is the following:

____________________________________________

Exodus 13.12: "You are to give over to the Lord
the first offspring of every womb. All the firstborn
males of your livestock belong to the Lord".
