- A rainbow in the morning is the shepherd’s warning and a rainbow at eventide makes the shepherd satisfied.
If the sun sinks red ‘tis a sign of fine weather.
If the sun sinks copper colour ‘tis a sign of rain.
If the plough is turned upside down in the sky at night ‘tis a sign of rain.
When there’s a star near the moon ‘tis a sign of a gale.
When the swallows fly near to the ground ‘tis a sign of rain.
If Candlemas Day be fair and bright
winter will take another flight.
When the curlew cries ‘tis a sign of rain.
