  1. (continued from previous page)
    If a horse, while travelling, hit his hoof against a stone and a spark of light comes out, it is a sure sign of rain.
    If a dog lies down in front of the fire with his back turned to it, it will rain.
    If a dog eats grass, it will rain.
    If curlews come from the south-west it will rain.
    If the sky is red in the west in the evening, it will be fine tomorrow.
    If there is a kind of sparks on the ground in a winter's night, it will freeze hard.
