Unlucky in Devon - 71 & 72

"If one's right ear gets very hot it shows that one's friends are speaking in laudatory terms of one. On the other hand, if one's left ear burns, then the friends are "picking holes in one's jacket."

Let left or right burn at night, 

then all things are well, 

both in and out of sight."

Hewett 1900
