I can't quite make it out on my phone sorry. Thanks tho My eyes aren't quite good enough to make it all out but it looks like some kind of prayer for whalers? First line looks like it says something like "Oh God heed the prayers of we who hunt the whale" hopefully bunny will be along to tell us exactly what it says Quote Link to post Share on other sites
