"If any sailor passes at midnight, and sees them or hears their cries, he is doomed." "But does he see or hear them?" asked Errington, with a smile. "Well, I don't know," returned Gueldmar, with a grave shake of his head. "I'm not superstitious myself, but I should be sorry to say anything against the berg-folk. You see they may exist, and it's no use offending them."
