- 1. Evening grey and morning red
Sends the shepherds wet to bed.2. When a cock goes crowing to bed
He wakes with a watery head3. A fog in the hollow - a fine day tomorrow.
A fog on the hill brings water to the mill.4. The wind that blows from the north-east
Be neither good for man or beast.5. Evening red and morning grey,
Sends the traveller on his way.6. Rain, rain, go to Slane
And never come back again.7. A mackerel sky is neither too wet nor too dry.- Collector
