Isaz

Template:One source Template:Short description Template:Infobox rune Template:Contains special characters *Isaz is the reconstructed Proto-Germanic name of the i-rune Template:Runic, meaning "ice". In the Younger Futhark, it is called íss in Old Norse. As a rune of the Anglo-Saxon futhorc, it is called is.

The corresponding Gothic letter is 𐌹 i, named eis.

The rune is recorded in all three rune poems:

Rune Poem:<ref>Original poems and translation from the Rune Poem Page.</ref>	English Translation:
Anglo-Saxon Template:Runic Is bẏþ oferceald, ungemetum slidor, glisnaþ glæshluttur gimmum gelicust, flor forste geƿoruht, fæger ansẏne.	Ice is very cold and immeasurably slippery; it glistens as clear as glass and most like to gems; it is a floor wrought by the frost, fair to look upon.
Old Icelandic Template:Runic Íss er árbörkr ok unnar þak ok feigra manna fár.	Ice is bark of rivers and roof of the wave and destruction of the doomed.
Old Norwegian Template:Runic Ís kǫllum brú bræiða; blindan þarf at læiða.	Ice is called the broad bridge; the blind man must be led.
