    Patrick's Day.
    7. The following rhyme is used as a guide to the different days.
    Monday for health, Tuesday for wealth, Wednesday the best day of all, Thursday for losses, Friday for crosses, and Saturday no day at all.
    It is lucky to sow potatoes on Good Friday. In this case a few potatoes only may be sowed if the whole crop is not ready for sowing.
