    Seven for a story that was never told.
    If you would meet a red haired woman in the morning you would have bad luck that day.
    It is not right to leave the water which you had washing your feet inside by night.
    It is right to have clean water inside by night.
    It is not right to kill a pig on a Monday.
    If you would be going selling a horse, it is right to throw after you. If it would come standing, you would sell the horse, and if not you would not sell him.
    If you would have a pain in your left leg, and if you would carry a potato in your right pocket it would get better
    If you would get a horse-shoe lost it is right to spit on it and throw it over your shoulder.
