eighth month on the Roman calendar. It was not until 8
BC that the name was changed to August, in honor of
Emperor Augustus Caesar. August was initially only 30
days long. However, Augustus wanted his month to
have as many days as July, which was named for Jul-
ius Caesar. To appease Augustus, one day was taken
from the month of February and added to August.

“In August, the large masses of berries, which, when
in flower, had attracted many wild bees, gradually assumed their bright velvety crimson hue, and by their weight again bent down and broke their tender limbs.”
