  1. To see the cat sitting with her back to the fire. To see the robin hopping around the door. When you see a blue blaze in the fire.
    To see a horse galloping through the field.
    A rainbow in the morning.
    When the swallows fly low.
    A swarm of ants on the road in the evening. When there is a strong heat off the fire.
    When the wind is from Scardan. S.W. of Mennymore N.S.
    If the sun sets a copper colour.
