CHAP. IX.
NOw must I speake of rods or windgales, which are no lesse co∣loured and diuers then the Rain-bow,* 1.1 which notwithstanding cease not to foretell raine, we need not stand long vpon this mat∣ter, for such rods or windgales are no other things, but vnper∣fect Rain-bowes. For these haue a discoloured face, yet haue they nothing crooked in them. For they appeare for the most part neere vnto the sunne in a moyst cloud, that beginneth but to spread, so that they haue the same colour that the Rain-bow hath, but not the forme, because the forme of the clouds, when they extend themselues, is different also.
