- (continued from previous page)all the year.
Itis not right to go into a house with a spade over your shoulder.
If a cat scrapes there is to be a big wind.
If a wisp is slinging from a hen's tail you will hear of a death.
If you see a spidnantha on the road it is right to put a wish on him.
If you have a pack of cards and cross a ditch they will go on fire, or if you don't have them face to face you will meet the devil. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
