Jomfru Koller came inadvertently up from the basement, and went toward the steps; her eyes were on the ground, and she did not see the Sow until it was too late, and then she turned quickly.

Johanna Pihl came waddling in at the gate up there. Lasse started when he saw her; she never came for any good.
