Wait !  the troll said.....
As he jumped in front of him.
You have the smell of humans on you.
Therefore, I can not let you pass thru.
The mouse said, but I have just what you need.
The troll looked him up and down,  and ask.
Now just what would that be?
What is it, that you think you have?
       " That I want", asks,  the troll.   
The mouse always heard that trolls were, really very stupid.
     The mouse replied,
But you let the others pass.
I know this because I've seen it.
Troll answered, yes, but, that has nothing to do with you. 
And if you displease me, I will eat you on this day.
     The mouse thought to himself.......  
Magic always works, but, only when you think you haven't been tricked.
Troll replied, well I'm waiting, to cook you in my dinner pot. 
Within my cave of cold gray stone as I chew on your bones.
Though I do prefer the taste of human little girls, and boys.
 The mouse got that gleam in his eye, "as he replied". 
When I was out and about this very morning I saw the valley.
Where all the human girls and boys come out to play.
There's even some that hang out in a basket all day.
The troll's eyes got very big, as he ask", where is this valley?
The mouse replied, with a big grin, why, it's just back over that hill.
The troll said, if you are lying to me, I will eat you when I get back. 
As he walked off over that hill, he said, wait for me here.
The mouse waited till the troll was far enough away.
So he could be on his way, the mouse thought to himself.
There really may be a valley where the human children play.
 But not over that hill, maybe over another hill, but not there.
 At leastways not anywhere near that hungry old troll.
As the mouse went on his way,  he thought...... 
The trouble with trolls is,  " they're really very stupid".
