Summary

The girl who was baking in the fairy hillock.

A story about a girl taken into a fairy hill and made to bake. Only after the girl had said the following did the fairies let her go: "beannachd dhutsa, ach mollachd a bheul d' ionnsaiche" [a blessing on you, but a curse on your teacher]. The girl thought she had only been away a day or two, but when she returned home, she realised that generations had passed.
