    A dark sky sing of rain.
    Sea-guls is the sing of a strom
    A cat with its back to the fire is the sing of rain.
    White hores on sea is the sing of a strom.
    When there are no stars in the sky it is the sing of rain.
    When a ring is round the moon it is the sing of rain
    When there is a mist over a hill it is the sing of rain.
