- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)grave - "the sheaf that is bound in the harvest will be loosed in the spring" - or they will always be badly off and full of cares and anxieties! No doubt, the original idea was that it was thriftless to marry at a season when all attention should be devoted to saving the crops.
It is very unlucky for the bridal party to meet a lame or squinting person; in some places red-haired people, or even a woman with a red petticoat or a red handkerchief on her head, would be considered an ill-omen to the happy pair! In County Cork, however, the girls at Shrovetide almost invariably invest in a new red flannel petticoat, which they wear going to Mass, market or fair, or indeed anywhere that a match is likely to be arranged for them!
May weddings are supposed to be unfortunate -"Marry in May,
Die of decay!"or,"Who weds in May weds poverty!"The Scotch version runs thus -"Married in May and kirked in green,
Baith bride and bridegroom winna long to be seen!"(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
