` That may be , ' said the Bull , and rushed at the Troll , and gored out his eyes , and drove his horns right through him so that his entrails gushed out , but the Troll fought just as well as he did , and it was three whole days before the Bull got the life out of him . But the Bull was then so weak and worn out that it was only with pain and effort that he could move , and so covered with wounds that the blood streamed from him . So he told the King 's daughter to take the horn of ointment that was hanging at the Troll 's belt , and anoint him with it . She did this , and then he came to himself again , but they had to stay there and rest for a week before the Bull was able to go any farther . At last they set forth on their way again , but the Bull was still weak , and at first could not go quickly . The King 's daughter wished to spare him , and said that she was so young and light of foot that she would willingly walk , but he would not give her leave to do that , and she was forced to seat herself on his back again . So they travelled for a long time , and through many lands , and the King 's daughter did not at all know where he was taking her , but after a long , long time they came to a gold wood . It was so golden that the gold dripped off it , and the trees , and the branches , and the flowers , and the leaves were all of pure gold . Here all happened just as it had happened in the copper wood and silver wood . The Bull told the King 's daughter that on no account was she to touch it , for there was a Troll with nine heads who was the owner , and that he was much larger and stronger than both the others put together , and that he did not believe that he could overcome him . So she said that she would take great care not to touch anything , and he should see that she did . But when they got into the wood it was still thicker than the silver wood , and the farther they got into it the worse it grew . The wood became thicker and thicker , and closer and closer , and at last she thought there was no way whatsoever by which they could get forward ; she was so terrified lest she should break anything off , that she sat and twisted , and turned herself on this side and on that , to get out of the way of the branches , and pushed them away from her with her hands , but every moment they struck against her eyes , so that she could not see what she was clutching at , and before she knew what she was doing she had a golden apple in her hands . She was now in such terror that she began to cry , and wanted to throw it away , but the Bull said that she was to keep it , and take the greatest care of it , and comforted her as well as he could , but he believed that it would be a hard struggle , and he doubted whether it would go well with him . Just then the Troll with nine heads came , and he was so frightful that the King 's daughter scarcely dared to look at him ` Who is this who is breaking my wood ? ' he screamed ` It is as much mine as yours ! ' said the Bull . ` We shall have a tussle for that ! ' screamed the Troll . ` That may be , ' said the Bull ; so they rushed at each other , and fought , and it was such a dreadful sight that the King 's daughter very nearly swooned .
The Bull gored the Troll 's eyes out and ran his horns right through him , but the Troll fought as well as he did , and when the Bull had gored one head to death the other heads breathed life into it again , so it was a whole week before the Bull was able XXXXX kill him .
So in into of on than that through to whether
