In my sleep I was bothered by those who practice witchcraft or Truldom [see 2740-50, 2814], but I do not remember in what way I was bothered. Having woken up in the night, I noticed that such spirits were around me, in fact even in my scalp, for when I was awake, many fled away, and indeed, as if coming out of the scalp here and there with a little whistling sound, as when a small inflated bladder is punctured, thus that quick hissing sound (hastigt hwasande som af wader som utfar**), or like that of snakes. Many of these dwell in the outermost province of the head, or its scalp. * Swedish for "witchcraft." ** Swedish for "quick hissing as of air escaping."
