fi 1864 w:Aleksis Kivi Nummisuutarit SKS 1956 act I Eskoa et tyhmäksi maininne, yhtä viisas on hän aina kuin isänsäkin, minä nimittäin; hän on ihan kaltaiseni, niin sielun kuin ruumiin puolesta. Hän ei ole tyhmä, vaan vähän itsepäinen, ja sen taitaa tukastansakin nähdä, joka on valkoinen ja harjaskankea, niinkuin ukolla itse tässä. I must not talk of Esko as stupid, he is as wise as his father, that is me; he is like me, both in body and in soul. He is not stupid, only a little stubborn, and perhaps one can tell that just by his hair; white and stiff like the hairs of a broom, like yours truly.
