[Note 282: Essive of =walkea=, _bright_. The meaning of these three words is clearly _as long as the moon shines_, but their exact relation to each other is a little obscure. =Kullan= is apparently an attributive genitive belonging to =kuun=, and the essive is to be taken in a temporal sense. Literally, _in the moon of gold shining_. Cf. XLIX. 116. =Päivä-kullan paistamahan.=]

[Note 311: =Emon= is gen. of =emo= (= =emä=), _mother_; =alvehia=, part. plur. of =alve= (stem =alpehe=, _a young fish_). The phrase seems to mean _fry that follow their mother_.]

[Note 312: Part. cases of =Väinämöinen= and =Uvantolainen=, after negative verb.]

[Note 313: Nominative sing. adj. originally _muddy_; thence _soft_ or _light_; explained as meaning here =kevytmielinen=, _light-minded_.]

He was much attached to female society, which led to his being killed, apparently very thoroughly, in book xiv., but in xv. his mother resuscitates him; he did not, however, learn wisdom. Books xxvi. and xxvii. recount his struggle with the people of Pohjola, with whom he was on bad terms owing to his not being invited to the marriage of Ilmarinen, and in xxix. he had to fly to Saari, whence however he was expelled (owing to his light conduct with a thousand brides and a hundred widows), and has further adventures in xxx. In the rest of the Kalevala he plays rather a secondary part.]
