Origin of Term "H.l.yon Days"

The term "halcyon days" is derived
from pretty little fable Of the Sicil-

seven days preceding and following
the winter solstice, December q, the
halcyon or kingfisher hoated on the
water in a nest in which her young
were deposited and that during this
time Of her brooding the seas were
calm. Our Indian summer corresponds
to the halcyon of the Sicilians.
