  1. (continued from previous page)
    When the cat or dog eats grass it is the sign of rain.
    When the robin red breast hops about the door step it is the sign of snow.
    When there is a rainbow in the sky it is the sign that God will not dround the world with water again
    A rainbow in the morning is the shepherds warning, a rainbow at night is the shepherds delight
