Survival Rhyme from Skadhi

If you would survive, listen well
Be prepared, know where to dwell
Know the herbs and animals' lives
Know how to walk the snow and ice
Sharpened weapons, waxed bow
Among these skills you must know
Deft hands and strength of steel
This training you must wield
Take what's needed, not too much
Lest spirits hearts and minds be shut
Razor mind and cunning skill
You must use to make your kill
When you take the skin take care
Lay the flesh of your prey bare
When you feel the freezing ice
Cover all or lose your life
In the thawing spring plan well
Or prepare your soul for the road to Hel.
