When the wind is in the east, Then the fishes bite the least; When the wind is in the west, Then the fishes bite the best; When the wind is in the north, Then the fishes do come forth; When the wind is in the south, It blows the bait in the fish's mouth. - in J.O. Halliwell's "Popular Rhymes" [Fish : Wind] A rainbow in the morning Is the Shepherd's warning; But a rainbow at night Is the Shepherd's delight. - Old Weather Rhyme [Rainbows] If woolly fleeces spread the heavenly way No rain, be sure, disturbs the summer's day. - Old Weather Rhyme [Clouds] When clouds appear like rocks and towers, The earth's refreshed by frequent showers. - Old Weather Rhyme [Clouds]
