The latter two refer to Kaun/Kenaz as a sore that children get. Is that what you mean by "boil"? It is my understanding that the Old English version is the most accepted, because the idea of a torch represents fire and, without this definition for Kaun/Kenaz, the primary element of fire is not represented in the Runes. If you have other information, can you please share it? I want to make sure I provide the most accurate information available, including different possibilities.Karen P.
