October



Rain in October
Means wind in December.

When birds and badges are fat in October,
Expect a cold winter.

When berries are many in October
Beware a hard winter.

In October dung your fields
And your land its wealth shall yield.

If ducks do slide at Hallowtide,
At Christmas they will swim;
If ducks do swim at Hallowtide
At Christmas they will slide.

Always will there be
Twenty-nine fine days in October.

If the October-moon comes without frost
Expect no frost till the moon of November.
