The Brown Bear Of The Green Glen is a Scottish Fairy Tale collected by John Francis Campbell in Popular Tales of the West Highlands.A king in Erin sent his two older sons to find a cure for his blindness and his lameness. Finally, his youngest son, John, went also, despite being called a fool. He found his brothers in the first town and went on. He met a talking bear, who sent him to stay for three nights with giants, and the last giant told him how to get an eagle to carry him to the land with the healing waters. When he gets there, he takes three bottles of the water, and also a bottle of brandy, a loaf of bread, and a wheel of cheese that are always the same no matter how much was eaten of them. He also kissed a sleeping woman.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })On the way back, he left the brandy, cheese, and bread each with one of the giants, but on the condition they give them to his sweetheart, if she came. He met up with his brothers, who tried to kill him, and left him where he was loaded into a cart of rusty iron, which made him rough-skinned and bald.Meanwhile, the woman had a fine baby boy. Her henwife gave her a bird that would hop on the head of the man who was the father. She tracked him and got back the brandy, the cheese, and the bread. When she reached his father's court, all the men lined up, but the bird did not jump on them. She asked if there were others and was told of rough-skinned gillie who worked in the smith, and the bird recognised him as the father, which proved that he had gotten the water his brothers had stolen. His brothers were punished as they had attacked John, and John married the woman.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Full text here.
