그렇다, 내일부터 10월. 세상에! 영국 작가 케이트 그리너웨이의 '창가 아래서'(1879)를 읽었다. 이름을 딴 상까지 제정된 그리너웨이의 첫 책으로서 어찌 보면 초현실적이지만 당대 현실을 당연히 반영한다. "On that fine hot day in September"가 반복되는 'Three little girls' 편을 발췌했다.

케이트 그리너웨이 컬러링 책이 있다.
Three little girls were sitting on a rail,
Sitting on a rail,
Sitting on a rail;
Three little girls were sitting on a rail,
On a fine hot day in September.
What did they talk about that fine day,
That fine day,
That fine day?
What did they talk about that fine day,—
That fine hot day in September?
The crows and the corn they talked about,
Talked about,
Talked about;
But nobody knows what was said by the crows,
On that fine hot day in September.
