Nursery Rhyme Book Quotes

“WHEN the wind is in the east, 'Tis neither good for man nor beast; When the wind is in the north, [81] The skilful fisher goes not forth; When the wind is in the south, It blows the bait in the fishes' mouth; When the wind is in the west, Then 'tis at the very best.”
― Andrew Lang, Nursery Rhyme Book

“[80] IF you sneeze on Monday, you sneeze for danger; Sneeze on a Tuesday, kiss a stranger; Sneeze on a Wednesday, sneeze for a letter; Sneeze on a Thursday, something better; Sneeze on a Friday, sneeze for sorrow; Sneeze on a Saturday, see your sweetheart to-morrow.”
