  1. (continued from previous page)
    Signs of snow.
    When the sky is a red colour.
    When the sheep come in off the mountain.
    When the robin comes in off the trees and comes near the door.
    When there is a hush in the air.
    When the weather gets very cold.
    When out lying cattle begin to low.
    When the clouds run on the sky.
    When the cat tears wood.
    When the sea gets noisy.
