[Footnote 120: Thorpe, Northern Mythology, Vol. II. p. 259. In the Norse
story of "Not a Pin to choose between them," the old woman is in doubt
as to her own identity, on waking up after the butcher has dipped her in
a tar-barrel and rolled her on a heap of feathers; and when Tray barks
at her, her perplexity is as great as the Devil's when fooled by the
Frenschutz. See Dasent, Norse Tales, p. 199.]

[Footnote 124: "A Leopard was returning home from hunting on one
occasion, when he lighted on the kraal of a Ram. Now the Leopard had
never seen a Ram before, and accordingly, approaching submissively, he
said, 'Good day, friend! what may your name be?' The other, in his gruff
voice, and striking his breast with his forefoot, said, 'I am a Ram;
who are you?' 'A Leopard,' answered the other, more dead than alive; and
then, taking leave of the Ram, he ran home as fast as he could." Bleek,
Hottentot Fables, p. 24.]

[Footnote 126: Sir George Grey once told some Australian natives about
the countries within the arctic circle where during part of the year the
sun never sets. "Their astonishment now knew no bounds. 'Ah! that must
be another sun, not the same as the one we see here,' said an old man;
and in spite of all my arguments to the contrary, the others adopted
this opinion." Grey's Journals, I. 293, cited in Tylor, Early History of
Mankind, p. 301.]
