Note 1 — Lake Goldring.1
Willard Henry Myers translation
The legend of the ring, originally an Oriental tale [See Herodotus on King Polycrates in Samos], has become a part of the folk-lore of several localities in Scandinavia, as in Närike, The Rich Lady; in Norway, The Insolent Priest’s Daughter; in Denmark, Free Birthe, etc. ↑
