How to Judge the Weather
如何判斷天氣

The traveller, setting off in the early morning, will find a fairly sure guide as to the weather he is likely to encounter by watching a very small distant cloud.
一早外出遊玩的人想要知道自己會遇到什麼樣的天氣,只要看看遠處的小云朵,就能找到一位可靠的嚮導。

If the cloud grows gradually larger, then unsettled, rainy weather will probably come.
如果這片雲逐漸擴大,那麼,在旅行者找到安身之處之前,陰雨就會降臨。

But if the cloud decreases in size, the day should be a fine one.
如果要是雲朵變小了,那麼這一定是一個好天氣。
