The Hero of Esthonia and Other Studies in the Romantic Literature of That Country

Note 41 — THE TWELVE DAUGHTERS.

Reading edition

These long-lived, but mortal Elemental Powers seem to correspond to some classes of the Arabian Jinn, as for instance, the Diving Jinn in such tales as "Jullanar of the Sea" (Thousand and One Nights). They may also be compared with the Elemental Spirits of the Rosicrucians, who are long-lived, but likewise mortal.
