  1. Mannhardt, no. 44, and p. 97.
  2. Ullmann, p. 146.
  3. ib. p. 147; cf. Mannhardt, nos. 42-43, Kohl, ii. 29. In Mannhardt, no. 44, the moon's grey horses stand at "God's" door while the sun's daughter is being wooed, although "folk say the moon has no horses of his own; they are the morning and the evening star " (ib. no. 46).
  4. Ullmann, p. 147; cf. also Mannhardt, no. 59.
  5. Mannhardt, nos. ii, 12, 16, and p. 287.
  6. ib. no. 32.
  7. ib. nos. 28-31, and pp. 103–04.
  8. ib. nos. 71 b–73, 75, and p. 298.
  9. ib. nos. 70, 71 a, and p. 287.
  10. ib. no. 62, and p. 97.
  11. Nesselmann, no. i; Rhesa, no. 78; Schleicher, no. 2; Mannhardt, no. 4 (cf. also Mannhardt, no. 76). When, however, the sun cares for the orphans behind the mountains, these would seem to be the stars, regarded as the children of Sun and Moon (Mannhardt, nos. 3–7, and pp. 303–04; cf. supra, p. 320).
  12. The attempts of Siecke, pp. 21–49, to lunarize these Baltic sun-myths are unworthy of serious consideration.
  13. Mannhardt, no. 17.
  14. ib. nos. 47–48.
  15. Stender, pp. 233, 265–66.
  16. See supra, pp. 322–23.
  17. The sun's daughter is often called "God's daughter" (Dė͂vo duktélë). This depends on the point of view, according as the twilights are associated with the sun or with the sky.
  18. Mannhardt, p. 295.
  19. ib. nos. 50, 74.
  20. ib. pp. 306, 309-14; Mythology of All Races, Boston, 1916–17, vi. 30–32, i. 24–27, 246–47. For the concept of twin gods see J. Rendel Harris, The Cult of the Heavenly Twins, Cambridge, 1906, and Boanerges, Cambridge, 1913.
  21. Nesselmann, no. 7; Rhesa, no. 84; Schleicher, no. 10; Mannhardt, no. 84. In a Lettish version (Mannhardt, no. 83) the maiden is told that her parents are in Germany (i. e. the west), drinking to the marriage of the (other?) sun-daughter (i. e. evening twilight). In reality this dainà bears only a superficial likeness to the "Jack and the Beanstalk" cycle, for which see the admirable discussion by J. A. MacCulloch, Childhood of Fiction, London, 1905, ch. xvi.
  22. Mannhardt, p. 230.
