    (continued from previous page)
    When the cock crows three times the danger is over.
    If you dream of a marriage you will hear of a death.
    A fox's tongue takes out a thorn.
    It is said when the cat sits with its back to the fire it is the sign of a storm.

    God bless the new moon and
    God bless me. I see the
    new moon and the new
    moon sees me.
    The cuckoo comes in April
    Sings her song in May
    Whistles her tune in the
    middle of June and then
    she flies away.
