kost

Pukkila-bonden hade delat sin kost med honom ; den hade varit mager nog .

The Pukkila master had shared his diet with him; it had been lean enough.

Något slags kost som bjudes också stadens " ande " , en svältkur som håller den hotande frossardöden på avstånd .

Some kind of diet that is also offered the city's "spirit " , a famine cure that keeps the threatening chill death at a distance .
