- (continued from previous page)turn back.
If you are going out and your gloves falls it is a disappointment for you.
If you left one it is a disappointment.
If a person gives you a present that is sharp you are supposed to give them a penny.
When you see a new moon you are supposed to turn your money in your pocket.
Signs of rain:-
When you see a dog eating grass it is a sign of rain. When you see a cat sitting with her back to the fire it is a sign of rain.When you see the cat washing her face there is a visitor coming. When you have a loose tooth you should bless yourself and throw it across your shoulder. Maura Flanagan
