Of Iune. Cap. 14.

THe sixt month is called Iunius, and hath that name of Iunioribus, youn∣ger men, for the people of Rome wer de∣uided in parts and tentes, and compa∣nyes of younger men, and of elder, as I∣sid. saith. The month of Iune is end of springing time, & beginning of Summer, and is called Thebatch among the He∣brewes, and Deseos among the Gréeks, & hath xxx. dayes, & his night hath sixe houres, & his daye xviii. And is the mo∣neth of stinting of the sun, for in y^e mid∣dle thereof, the sunne commeth into the signe, that is called Cancer, and then the heate of the sun drieth humors in mores & rootes, & all thing draweth to ripenes: & therfore he is painted, as mowing hay, for that time haye is ripe in medowes.
