A weeping May, and a warm June,
Makes the farmer whistle a merry tune.A peck of March dust is worth a king's ransom.Plough deep while sluggards sleep and you'll have corn to sell and to keep.General (marriage)
Marry in May and rue the day
" " Lent and live to repent
Marry " Green ashamed to be seen
Marry in Blue and always be true
Marry in Red sure to be dead.
Marry in yellow ashamed of your fellow.
Marry in White marry alright.
Marry in gray and live far away
Marry in Black sure to come back
Marry in Brown and live out of town.- Collector
