- Signs of Rain.
1 Cat scratching wood.
2 When spiders come forth from their cobwebs
3 when spiders are killed
4 When worms are killed.
5 When swallows fly low.
6 When clouds get black
7 When dogs sleep and eat grass.
8 Cat wipes her face with her velvet paw.
9 The frog changes its colour from yellow to russet - 10 When the cricket sings sharply
11 And the ducks quack loudly
12 When the peacocks cry and preen their feathers
13 When horses stamp their feet.
14 When the clouds are in a straight line in the sky it is sure sign of rain.
15. If the sun goes pale to bed, it is a sign of rain on the morrow. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
