<p>There is not a known Norwegian or Anglo-Saxon rune poem for Cweorth.</p>

<p>A modern poem:</p>

<blockquote>
	<p>Cweorth, quintessential question<br/>
	that burns inside as a funeral pyre,<br/>
	asking why I haven't yet<br/>
	managed to my life purify.<br/>
	I'm trying my damned hardest, you see,<br/>
	taking all of my studies seriously,<br/>
	but it's difficult enough to live in this world<br/>
	without also being smothered by the Veil's every crease.</p>
