WHITE ASH near a fire and both surrounded by ashen twigs, the serpent will sooner run into the fire than pass over the pieces of ash ; all of which is important if true. The other, refers to the peculiar liability of the ash to be struck by lightning, and this belief is embalmed in ancient folk-lore rhymes.
The rustic laborer at the approach of a thunder-storm is admonished, Beware the oak it draws the stroke, Avoid the ash it courts the flash, Creep under the thorn it will save you from harm.
...Indeed, the oak and ash are frequently associated in coun- try proverbs and rural lore.
If the oak is out before the ash, 'Twill be a summer of wet and splash ; But if the ash is before the oak 'Twill be a summer of fire and smoke.
The wood of all the ashes is singularly light, strong and elastic. Prehistoric man seeking an available weapon found it in an ashen club. Achilles fought with an ashen spear. Cupid made his arrows first of the ash. The North Ameri- can Indian could find no better wood in the forest for his bow or his paddle than the ash.
