  1. (continued from previous page)
    grass it is a sign of rain. When the sky is a dark blue it is a sign of thunder. If the smoke is going here and there from a chimney it is a sign of wind.
    When a woman complains of pains in her bones it is a sign of frost. When the dust is blown here are there it is a sign or rain. A fog is a sin of rain. When distant hills appear to be neigh it is a sign of rain.
