  1. If the moon is clouded.
    When the sun sets a copper colour.
    If the moon is in such a position so that a man could hang his hat on it.
    If curlews cry.
    When the horse puts his back to the wind. When swallows fly high in Summer.
    When the wildgeese come inland.
    If the weather breaks with thunder.
    If St. Swithins day is wet.
    When a mist comes in the mountains.
