“When you hear or see the whirlwind you should through up a piece of grass or hay...”
When you hear or see the whirlwind you should through up a piece a grass or hay and say "God bless all travellers & the Shee-geehe would take no hay out of the meadow."When you see a whirlwind taking dust out of the road you should turn your back to it.
