  1. (continued from previous page)
    lie on John Healy's sraith it is a sure sign of a storm. If my mother sees the dog eating grass and the cat scraping the ground she tells us that it is a sign of rain. The old people used to say that if there is as much blue in the sky that would make a yard of coat for a child that there will be no rain that day.
