Then the mare reared up on her hind legs and let out a great ringing neigh and came down stamping on her forehooves. "Trolls!" she shouted. "Trolls! Would you like a ride on the red mare’s back?"

There was a sound of roaring and yelling inside the mountain. Trolls came pouring out of the door, dozens and scores of them, hairy and scaly and scowling, and, oh, they were ugly trolls. Their arms were long and their hands wide; their skins were white and their eyes small. They came running out so fast, reaching for the red mare's reins, that she barely leapt away in time. She galloped up into the rocks and snow and darkness of the mountainside. Some of the trolls carried flaring torches, and all of them went running after her, shouting, "Catch her! Head her off! Catch her reins! Drive her to the cliff's edge!"
