    The following is a rhyme showing which is the best day on which to be born:-
    Monday's child is fair of face,
    Tuesday's child is full of grace,
    Wednesday child has far to go,
    Thursday;s child is full of woe,
    Friday's child is loving and giving,
    Saturday's child works hard for a living,
    The child that is born on the Sabbath day,
    Is lucky and bonny and wise and gay.
