I provided myself with a soldier, whom I placed centinel at the door withinside, to guard me from the danger of such assaults for the future.
For example, one veteran officer advised a rookie, “The only reason to go in on a pursuit is not to get the perpetrator but to pull the cop who gets there first offa the guy before he kills him.”
This story is a fit pendant to those of the krake and sea-snake, which likewise rest on the authority of Norwegian fishermen, and which we will mention at another time.[…]For those who are unconvinced by the voluminous but vague proofs of the existence of the sea-serpent, the stories of the krake will have no more weight than those of the mermaid who appeared to Queen Dagmar, and those which the Norse fishers profess to catch, and after giving them milk at their huts, to restore to the same place in the fjord. / The krake, or krabben, the ‘crab’ par excellence, is supposed to be an enormous polypus or medusa infesting the North Sea.[…]He went as far as the polar ice-fields, till they “heard the krake snort in the water,” and there Thor, with a bull’s head for bait, hooked Jormun-gandur, the original sea-serpent, which held the world together in its coils.
