- (continued from previous page)Dá mbeadh soineann go Samhain, bheadh breall ar dhuine éigint
Ní fuacht go h-Earrach
Ní anaithe go gaoth adtuaidh
Reódh i dtosach na h-oídhche gur díol Fionn na bróga. - When the soot falls.
When the sky is dark and cloudy.
When the mountains seem near you.
The river roaring at a certain point.
When the cat is near the fire.
When there is a ring around the moon.
When swallows fly low.
When the otter comes inland.
When ones corns get painful.
When tobacco gets moist.
When the robin sings inside in a bush.
It is a sign of good weather to find the robin singing on the outside of a bush in the morning.
When the cattle and sheep on mountains move down towards the valleys a storm or broken weather is certain.
When mountain cattle are found heading for the top or on the top of the mountain it is a certainty that the weather is fine or about to be in the near future.(continues on next page)
