quern

I think a prudent reader should pronounce as the judges do—Pater est is quern nuptiæ demonstrant.

That quern turned out anything that the grinder chose, though formerly it had ground nothing but peace and gold.

One summer it happened that the men from Quern had killed many deer, while those from Exaluq had caught but a few.

Mysingr took with him the quern, Grotti, with Fenia and Menia, and ordered them to grind salt.

But angels used to grind at the quern for Ciaran's sake on the day that was his.
