    When the cattle and sheep are under a fence.
    When the spider leaves his web.
    When the seagulls are coming to land.
    When the midges are out.
    When the swallows fly low.
    When there is a fog in the moon.
    When there is a russet or dark colour on frogs.
    When the sun is waterish.
    When the walls get damp.
    When the ditches smell.
