    It is not right to take a coal out of the fire until you leave another one in the place of it.
    If you break a glass vessel and if there is a sick man in the house he will get better.
    If you you hear a dog crying it is a sign that somebody will die.
    If a cat is scraping with his nail it is a sign that we are going to have a storm.
    If a dog is eating grass it is a sign that we are going to have rain.
