'*Legend of three Billy Goats & Troll*'
LEGEND OF THE TREE BILLY GOATS GRUFF AND THE TROLL
(Norway)
Once upon a time there were three billy goats, names Gruff. They were on their way to eat on the hillside, but they had to cross a bridge. Under the bridge lived a Troll, with eyes as big as saucers, and nose as long as poker.
The first goat over the bridge was the youngest billy goat Gruff. "trip, trap, trip, trap," he walked across the bridge.
"Who is that tripping over my bridge?" roared the Troll.
"I am the smallest billy goat Gruff, and i am going to the hillside to make myself fat." said the billy goat, with a tiny voice.
"I am coming to eat you," said the Troll
"Oh, no, please dont eat me. I am too little," said the billy goat, "wait for the second billy goat Gruff, he is much bigger."
"Well, be off with you," said the Troll.
A little later the second billy goat Gruff crossed the bridge. "trip, trap, trip, trap" went the bridge.
"Who is that tripping over my bridge?" roared the Troll
"I am second billy goat Gruff, and i am going up to hillside to make myself fat," said the billy goat, with the medium voice.
"I am coming to eat you," said the Troll
"Oh, no, dont eat me, wait for the last billy goat Gruff, he is much bigger
"Very well. Be off with you," said the Troll
Next the big billy goat Gruff crossed the bridge "trip, trap, trip, trap" went the bridge. This billy goat was havy and the bridge creacked and groaned under him.
"Who is that tramping over my bridge?" roared the Troll
"I am the big billy goat Gruff," said the billy goat with big ugly voice.
"I am coming to eat you," roared the Troll
"No, you are not!" said the biggest billy goat Gruff. "I am bigger than you and i could crush you into bits and bones"
With that, the big billy goat Gruff head butted the Troll into the water and he was never seen again. And from then on, anyone could cross the bridge whenever they liked, thanx to three billy goats Gruff.
