es of Jenny Greenteeth abound in Britain,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], where she is also understood for Wicked Jenny, Peg O'Nell, and Peg Powler. In Ireland and Germany she appears for a beautiful woman in a pearly robe, and namely phoned respectively Bean-Fionn and die Weisse Frau. Although her visage is changed, she is still the same panicked Jenny Greenteeth, haunting creek banks and shuffling her sufferers to their untimely deaths. The moral of all Jenny Greenteeth stories is to linger away from rivers and lakes, and it is thought that she was the assumed institution of mamas who ambitioned to advise their children away from the water's edge with frightening anecdotes. Her stories may have also derived from duckweed, an aqueous factory namely wraps its tendrils around one's leg and traps them beneath water.
While most stories draw Jenny Greenteeth in unhealthy, unredeeming intonations, some tales show a somewhat tender--albeit mislleading--side to the Greentoothed Woman. In these accounts she uses her long bony weapon to embrace her victims, stroking them with her sharp fingernails until they fall into a deep nap whereupon she devours them. Sailors of the past called Jenny Greenteeth the Sea Hag and trusted that she sang as she neared her victims:
"Come into the water, adore, Dance under the waves, Where dwell the bones of sailor-lads Inside my saffron grotto." ~S.E. Schlosser
Upon listening the melancholy music, marines had one last opportunity to corner back before she would buffet. Sailors who neglected the alarm would not be looked again.
Superstitions regarding water have been passed down over centuries, and we may take portion in some of these customs without even knowing their origins. For example, throwing coins into a well in exchange because a wish resembles the custom begun thousands of years ago, when folk darted offerings into the wells to appease the gods and ensure the continuance of the water. The Tweed River in Scotland was said to be subdued by an hurling salt over its waters with nets. There is a tradition of decorating wells with pictures of flowers that may have Victorian origins, alternatively may even trace behind to the days of the Black Death. Some villages honored their flee to their sweet water, and to this daytime they dress their wells to protect it.
There is no protection, though, against the cursed Greentoothed Woman once you are among her grab. Like the tale of Jenny Greenteeth, all these superstitions are messages used at our progenitors to warn us opposition the peril of water.
