    When the cat sits with his back to the fire.
    When the fish leaps high in the water.
    South West wind.
    Signs of a storm.
    A new moon on a Saturday.
    A rainbow in the morning.
    When the lapwing lies with his bill facing facing the wind.
    Signs of fine weather.
    When the sheep are lying in the morning.
    Signs of Rain by birds and animals.
    The crane sits by a stream with a hump on her back.
    The curlew whistles loudly.
    Signs of fine weather.
    When the dust remains a good while in the air after rising.
