Editing Snow White (section)

====Great Britain====
In the [[Scotland|Scottish]] version [[Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree]], queen Silver-Tree asks a trout in a well, instead of a magic mirror, who's the most beautiful. When the trout tells her that Gold-Tree, her daughter, is more beautiful, Silver-Tree pretends to fall ill, declaring that her only cure is to eat her own daughter's heart and liver. To save his daughter's life, the king marries her off to a prince, and serves his wife a goat's heart and liver. After Silver-Tree discovers that she has been deceived thanks to the trout, she visits her daughter and sticks her finger on a poisoned thorn. The prince later remarries, and his second wife removes the poisoned thorn from Gold-Tree, reviving her. The second wife then tricks the queen into drinking the poison that was meant for Gold-Tree.<ref>Jacobs, Joseph ''Celtic Fairy Tales'' London: David Nutt 1892 pp. 88-92</ref> In another Scottish version, ''Lasair Gheug, the King of Ireland's Daughter'', the heroine's stepmother frames the princess for the murder of the queen's firstborn and manages to make her swear she'll never tell the truth to anybody. Lasair Gheug, a name that in [[Gaelic language|Gaelic]] means Flame of Branches, take refugee with thirteen cats, who turn out to be an enchanted prince and his squires. After marrying the prince and having three sons with him the queen discovers her stepdaughter is still alive, also thanks to a talking trout, and sends three giants of ice to put her in a death-like state. As in ''Gold-Tree and Silver-Tree'' the prince takes a second wife afterwards, and the second wife is the one who revives the heroine.<ref>Bruford, Alan and Donald A.
