How they went scurrying!
In came a troll-wife, her hunger to sate,
Killed she the dogs, roasted them and ate,
One by one the men

In through her back and out through her paunch;
Shrieking and quaking,
The spear-shaft shaking,
Bellowing the troll rushed out into the forest.

Rushing past village, and mountain, and tree,
Stormy skies and clear,
And the Yule-tide near,
Norway lies below them dotted with its lights.
How they go hurrying,
How they go scurrying!
