The _TrawlaravÌsur_ and other ballads, besides the dances and tunes of the Faroe Islands of today, have been investigated by Thuren who published several studies on this most interesting subject, e.g. _Dans og Kvaddigtning paa FÊr¯erne, med et Musikbilag_, 1901. _Folkesangen paa FÊr¯erne_, 1908, etc., (cf. especially _Nyere Danseviser_, pp. 273-282), etc.] [Footnote 10: _Antiq.

Thuren, _Dansen paa FÊr¯erne_ (Copenhagen, 1908), p. 9, a certain fixed number of songs are now sung on Suder¯; a great many have been quite forgotten since Hammershaimb wrote.] [Footnote 12: It is also occasionally danced in Andefjord, but only very rarely nowadays (cf. H. Thuren, _Dansen paa FÊr¯erne_, p. 8).] [Footnote 13: _Ib._ p. 8.] [Footnote 14: _Ib._, pp. 4-10.] [Footnote 15: _Dances and Dance Paraphernalia_, in _Expedition to the Torres Straits_ (Cambridge, 1904), Vol. IV, p. 292.] [Footnote 16: Miss Aline Brylinska, who has kindly supplied me with this information.] [Footnote 17: S.
