  1. Signs in the sky
    If clouds travel quickly across the sky 'tis a sign of a storm
    If there is redness in the sky in the west 'tis a sign of frost.
    If there is a ring round the moon tis the sign of storm
    If the clouds are low tis a sign of rain
    If stars are running in the sky 'tis a sign of rain
    If you see stars falling 'tis a sign of rain
    A rainbow in the morning is a sign of rain; A rainbow in the evening is a sign of fine weather
    If the sun shines strongly in the morning in Summer the evening will be cold
