Dun Cow
- #0963
Celtic (culture)
Rural (attribute)
Friendly (behaviour)
An enormous cow of Britain that gave unlimited milk to all. If anyone abused this quality and took more than they were entitled to then the bull would become ferocious and chase the wrongdoer. This happened to a lady who used a sieve to collect milk. When the Dun Cow realised it was being taken advantage of, it chased the woman around town. Hearing the woman's screams, Sir Guy Warwick came to the rescue with sword in hand and slew the Dun Cow ending its ferocious rampage.
