THE RAM
The wind is like to a Rampageous Ram,
That rushes to and fro and round about.
I speed my parting hat with futile damn,
As my umbrella turneth inside out.
CUPID’S FORECAST
MARCH
Marked coldness, followed by windy sighs, culminating in stormy bluster. Alternate Frostiness and Melting. A depressing month and one to test the intensity of the heart gardener. All but the hardiest plants must be given extreme attention, and many gardeners, to avoid the danger of a frost, sit up far into the night with their favorite plants during this month. But at the best it is apt to be chilly and unpleasant going. The month ends in calm, indifferent weather.
