These he has slain with a total of 800 mighty thrusts of his sword; evil sorcerers and trolls each requiring two thrusts (to the chest) and orcs each requiring one thrust (to the neck).

Accordingly, four times as many trolls as evil sorcerers have fallen to my sword!" How many of each type of villain has he slain?
