collected from various sources, including his own notes, many rhymes and sayings connected with the weather, and his little tract is of considerable interest.
This little book is written in support of a movement to revive in the Church of England the observance of the fourth Sunday in Lent, known as Laetare, Mid-Lent Sunday, Refreshment Sunday, Fig-pie Sunday, Simnel Sunday, Braget Sunday, the Sunday of the Five Loaves, Mi-Carme, and the Sunday of the Golden Rose. The writer has collected much information about the festival, but unfortunately his references are insufficient. The photographs of the Chilbolton wafer cakes and the Horn Mug used in the Refreshment Porch of Bewdley Mother Church are of some interest.
