He took him to a home on a bank in a great forest, because the stranger was a troll. The first day, the troll had him feed all the wild animals in the forest, which it had tied up. The next, the troll turned him into a hare and set him wild to run the year long. Every hunter tried to get him, as the only animal in the forest, but no dog could catch him and no gun shoot him....
