BÌDEAG AN DUINE MHAIRBH, VI 165, the dead man’s nip. I heard of a woman who was married to a widower who was nipped very severely on the night of her marriage. She thought it was the first wife. It is attributed to jealousy in some cases.
Dh’inns Màiri Thormoid an Éirisgeigh dhomh, “Ò, bha siud very common, bìdeag an duine mhairbhe. Ma bha spot air choireigin osta, agus tha i dubh, chanadh iad bìdeag an duine mhairbhe. Agus chanadh mo mhàthair, ò an do smaoinich sibh air duine a bha marbh, ’s gun tàinig an duine seo is gun tug e bìdeag asad?”
