De, som satt ved bordet, var nesten alle eldre folk, omkring femtitallet, værbrune, skarpt markerte fjes, karakteristiske for sjøfolk og kystbefolkning, hornet i skinnet over knokene, harde, ru never, med likesom evig stivfrosne fingre, hår og skjegg farveløst og stridt, tørt som halm.

Those sitting at the table were almost all older people, around their fifties, with tanned, sharply defined faces, characteristic of sailors and coastal people, horned skin over their knuckles, hard, rough fists, with fingers that seemed to be eternally frozen, hair and beard colorless and disheveled, dry as straw.
