OVEM BER has had fewer good wordsspoken for it, perhaps, than any other month. When chill Novembers surly blastMade fields and forests bare, wrote Burns, and Taylor, in his November, tells how— Wrapped in his sad-colored cloak, the Day, like a Puritan, standethStern in the joyless fields, rebuking the lingering color.On the other hand, Thoreau, a lover of naturein all its moods, writes appreciatively: As fruits and leaves and the day itself acquirea bright tint just before they fall, so the yearnear its setting. October is its sun.set sky ; No-vember the later twilight. In temperate regions November, more than^ny other month, seems the season of death.270 No softening snow hides the bareness of thefields, and shrill, gusty winds whirl about thedead leaves which have lost the last vestige oftheir gorgeous October color. Autumn seemsover, and winter has not begun. The Anglo-Saxons, who had a way of naming things simplyand picturesquely, called November the windmonth or the blood month
