101. Bull-of-all-the-land. [[Story]]
Old Forbes gave me the only version of this story I heard in Jamaica. In Trowbridge, JAFL 9: 284–285, the song and the incident of the three drops of blood occur, but the king is “King Tonga” and there is no beast transformation. The husband is lost [[281]]by letting a little dog kiss him, as in number [105] and in Parsons, Andros Island, 55, 59, not by his wife’s burning the skin as in this version.
For the song at night as a means of recognition see number [74].
See Grimm 88, The Singing Soaring Lark; Bolte u. Polívka 2: 229–273.
102. The Boiling Pot. [[Story]]
