What a smell of Christian man 's blood ! ' said the Troll . ` Yes , a bird flew over the roof with a Christian man 's bone in his bill , and let it fall down our chimney , ' answered the Princess . ' I made haste enough to get it away again , but it must be that which smells so , notwithstanding . ' ` Yes , it must be that , ' said the Troll . Then the Princess asked if he had got hold of anyone who could brew a hundred lasts of malt at one brewing . ` No , there is no one who can do it , ' said the Troll . ' A short time since there was a man here who said he could do it , ' said the King 's daughter . ` How clever you always are ! ' said the Troll . ` How could you let him go away ? You must have known that I was just wanting a man of that kind . ' ` Well , but I did n't let him go , after all , ' said the Princess ; ` but father is so quick-tempered , so I hid him in the cupboard , but if father has not found any one then the man is still here . ' ` Let him come in , ' said the Troll . When Minnikin came , the Troll asked if it were true that he could brew a hundred lasts of malt at one brewing . ` Yes , ' said Minnikin , ` it is . ' ` It is well then that I have lighted on thee , ' said the Troll . ` Fall to work this very minute , but Heaven help thee if thou dost not brew the ale strong . ' ` Oh , it shall taste well , ' said Minnikin , and at once set himself to work to brew . ` But I must have more trolls to help to carry what is wanted , ' said Minnikin ; ` these that I have are good for nothing . '
So he got more and so many that there was a swarm XXXXX them , and then the brewing went on .
