Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Handbook of Weather Folk-Lore: Being a Collection of Proverbial Sayings in Various Languages Relating to the Weather, With Explanatory and Illustrative Notes It is well known that certain days have been, in various countries, considered as ominous of the ensuing weather. The popular sayings attached to them are of great antiquity, and therefore the alteration of the Calendar has affected them in a material degree; yet still do the peasantry of the Continent consult religiously their critical days; and if a ´Volkskalender´ of Germany, Switzerland, or Bohemia were to discontinue giving its "Bauern-" or "Wetter-regelen," there is no doubt that its circulation would be sensibly diminished. So, too, in our own land, each district has its weather proverbs, some peculiar to itself, some, it may be, shared in common with the country folk of France, Germany, and Italy.
