- In former times it is said that work begun on Saturday would never be finished. It is also said that on Friday a person should not marry for they would not have good luck. It is said by the old people that if you see a rain-bow on three Friday evenings in succession that it is a sign of, if they are in the same spot each evening.II This is a rhyme that the old people believed about the days of the week. Monday for health, Tueaday for wealth, Wednesday the best day of all, Thursday for crosses, Friday for losses and Saturday no luck at all.
