Lunar Lore

The Moon in opposition to Venus, shews a laudable day in all kind of business. ~Bethem’s “Centiloquium”. … The nearer to twelve in the afternoon, the drier the moon. The nearer to twelve in the forenoon, the wetter the moon. ~Herefordshire. … The sad and solemn night Hath yet her multitude of cheerful fires; The glorious host of light Walk the dark hemisphere till she retires; All through her silent watches, gliding slow, Her constellations come, and climb the heavens, and go. – William Cullen Bryant, “Hymn to the North Star.”
