"This month derives it's name from the word februare, to purify, or from Februa, the Roman festival of expiation, which was celebrated through the latter part of this month."
from The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady by Edith Holden
I have been reading this beautiful book at night, and enjoying it so much. In it, Edith Holden documents the coming and going of seasons through her observations, drawings and notes about her surroundings. She really notices small changes in nature, such as when buds appear on trees and the first time she hears a particular birdsong for the season. She wrote this diary in 1906, however it was first published in 1977 and became a bestseller to be reprinted many times over.
