    4 It is said that it is not lucky to throw out anything on new years day such as water or ashes. On the day before the first of may you should gather may flowers and put them at every door belonging to the house. you should spill blood on St martin's day, because St. martins blood was spilt. On November night you should tie a red rag to the cows tails for fear any people would over look her.
