  1. (continued from previous page)
    the direction of Carrickmacross (SW wind) When the donkeys are heard braying at night
    When crows fly high and make a sudden dive in their flight
    When cranes scream
    When swallows fly low
    When the cat scratches the legs of the table with her claws
    When the cat sits with her back to the fire
    When there is a "blowdown" in the kitchen
    When soot falls down
    When the smoke falls down on the roof
