    The following rhyme is quoted on the birth of a child
    "Monday's child is fair of face
    Tuesday's child is full of grace
    Wednesday's child is loving and giving
    Thurssday's child works hard for its living
    Friday's child is full of woe
    Saturday's child has far to go
    But the child that is born on the Sabbath Day
    Is merry and blithe and good and gay"
