It might not have been the grasshopper after all. There appear to be variants of the translation that suggest a cricket did the singing (more likely than a grasshopper) and this reference suggests a cicada which are clearly known for their singing.

This looks like it's referring to somebody who complained that their country was "full". I'm sure that plenty of people have claimed this over the years, but one who claimed it in 2002 was Pim Fortuyn in the Netherlands. I don't see why the Netherlands are less full, though.

Aha! From Chapter 6:
===
It is upon this account that the image of Justice, in their courts of
judicature, is formed with six eyes, two before, as many behind, and on
each side one, to signify circumspection; with a bag of gold open in her
right hand, and a sword sheathed in her left, to show she is more
disposed to reward than to punish.
===
So the first island is Sumatra, the second Babi (just southeast of
Simuelue), the group is the Cocos or Keelings (or, if the navigator
didn't allow enough for the current when pricking his chart, Christmas
Island) and the last one is Lilliput.

Ring of the Troll

This ring acts in all ways as a ring of regeneration or rapid regeneration, but are in fact faulty versions of those rings, created through errors in the making process. This is due the use of to much trollish blood in the enchantment of the ring, these rings work normally, regenerating missing parts and wounds, but replacing them with thair trollish equivalents. When the wearer has regenerated as many Hps as hes miximum total, he is turned into a troll (standard or your choice, it is up to DM as to what kind of troll the ring was made from). This may not become immediately apparent as the transformed parts may be hiddin under clothes, armor and so on. It can be suppressed before it is completed, by a dispel magic, but afterwards only by a wish or reincarnate spell.

makes you a troll.

From "Tom Swift and his Motor Boat"

"Two hundred---two hundred!" droned on Mr. Wood. "I am offered two hundred. Will any of you go any higher?" He paused a moment, and Tom's heart beat harder than ever. "If not," resumed the speaker, "I will declare the bidding closed. Are you all done? Once---twice---three times. Two hundred dollars. Going---going-- -gone!" He clapped his hands. "The boatt is sold to Thomas Swift for two hundred dollars. If he'll step up I'll take his money."
