    After night Fall: (unlucky) It is considered unlucky to go to a spring well or to throw out water after night fall.
    Of Course the Lore of Certain Day's is only the superstitious belief of the ancient Irish people. Yet in spite of this the old men with heads as white as the fleecy clouds tell in whispered words the misfortunes which happened to the people who did not believe those omens.
