* In the tales "[http://www.mythfolklore.net/andrewlang/116.htm The Black Thief and Knight of the Glen]" and "[http://www.surlalunefairytales.com/authors/jacobs/celtic/conallyellowclaw.html Conall Yellowclaw]", a lord captures four thieves: three brothers and an older man. The older man ransoms each of the brothers by telling a story of when he had been in more danger than they are, in the hands of a man about to execute them. The final story involves his helping a woman save a baby, and an old woman recognizes the tale and that the lord had been the baby, so the lord rewards the older thief for his rescue. |
