If chrysolite upon her brow is laid,
Follies and dark delusions flee afraid.
OCTOBER
| Natal stone | Beryl. | |
| Guardian angel | Bariel. | |
| His talismanic gem | Agate. | |
| Special apostle | Simon. | (Zelotes.) |
| His gem | Jacinth. | |
| Zodiacal sign | Scorpio. | |
| Flower | Hops. |
October’s child is born for woe,
And life’s vicissitudes must know;
But lay a beryl on her breast,
And Hope will lull those woes to rest.
When fair October to her brings the beryl,
No longer need she fear misfortune’s peril.
