I was reluctant to mention the source of this excerpt for a variety of reasons - it is a self-published book intended to get it off my desk before I shuffle on to Buffalo. Most of my books are peer reviewed, but not this one, which is an adaptation of my graduate-school-era translation of the classic work by a dear friend, Elisabeth Hofelich-Hartmann (1912-2004): Die Trollvorstellungen in den Sagen und Märchen der Skandinavischen Völker – The Troll Beliefs in the Legends and Folktales of the Scandinavian Folk, a doctoral dissertation, published in 1936 under the direction of Carl Wilhelm von Sydow (1878-1952) and his former student, Sven S. Liljeblad (1899-2000) - my mentor.

My homage to Dr. Hartmann is titled Trolls: From Scandinavia to Dam Dolls, Tolkien, and Harry Potter. It may be of use to you.
