    Swans, come near the shore.
    The dog will lick your hand.
    A lot of stars appear in the sky.
    The seagulls fly inland.
    The goats come down from the hills and stay in shelter.
    The lake makes a great noise.
    The cat scrapes the brush.
    The lapwings lie on the rocks.
    The pig curls his tail.
    The willy-wag tail comes near the door.
    (A mist on Mt. Gable (about 5 miles N.W. of here) is said to be a sure sign of rain.)
    Clouds passing very quickly.
