  1. (continued from previous page)
    meeting together it is a sign of a good spring. When the north wind doth blow we shall have snow. If the wind blows from the north in March we shall have snow. If the wind hangs in the dir-ection of the hands of the clock it brings fine weather, and if it goes the opposite it foretells bad weather.
