"On one
of the farms in Valders there was a girl called Barbro, and she was once
up at a dairy. She was sitting one day at her work when she
suddenly heard some one shouting over in a hill:
"'King Haaken, King Haaken!'
"'Yes,' answered King Haaken, till it sounded
all over the hills.
"'King Haaken, my son, will you get married?' it
cried again in the hill.
"'Yes, that I will,' said King Haaken, 'if I can
have Barbro in the dairy over yonger!'
"'Yes, yes, we'll see to that,' Barbro heard the
voice in the hill answer, and she got so frightened that she did not
know what to do... (Folk and Fairy Tales, Asbjörnsen, 1883)
