Jón Steingrímsson, Provost. Poem by Jakob Thorarensen. Poem for the memorial gathering of the Síður people in July 1933 - 150 years after the Skaftá Fire.


Clerks the expensive, inner wealth
An entire nation could be amazed:
Abandoned by all - alone and destitute
The fire priest Keik stood
under the burden of his own country,
the wound was bandaged and healed;
also prayers begin-hot
The highest hall shook.
