When the fourth day around her orb is spread A circling ring of deep and murky red, Soon from his cave the God of Storms will rise, Dashing with foamy waves the lowering skies. And when fair Cynthia her full orb displays, Or when unveiled to sight are half her rays, Then mark the various hues that paint her face, And thus the fickle weather's changes trace.

If dull her face and blunt her horns appear, On the fourth day a breeze or rain is near. If on the third she move with horns direct, Not pointing downward or to heaven erect, The western wind expect; and drenching rain, If on the fourth her horns direct remain. If to -the earth her...

If black the Phatne, and the Onoi clear, Sure sign again that drenching showers are near. And if the northern star be lost to sight, While still the...
