East wind

"The East Wind, an interloper in the dominions of Westerly weather, is an impassive-faced tyrant with a sharp poniard held behind his back for a treacherous stab."

"Good old Watson! You are the one fixed point in a changing age. There's an east wind coming all the same, such a wind as never blew on England yet. It will be cold and bitter, Watson, and a good many of us may wither before its blast. But it's God's own wind none the less, and a cleaner, better, stronger land will lie in the sunshine when the storm has cleared."

"The east wind is a rain-bearing wind. [...] The east wind is a wind of prosperity, the friend of Naram-Suen."

"He stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind."

"The wind's in the east * * * I am always conscious of an uncomfortable sensation now and then when the wind is blowing in the east."
