Note 411 — ON AIRS, WATERS, AND PLACES.

Francis Adams translation

Coray makes the following remarks on the natural characters of the seasons in Greece. The natural temperature of the winter in Greece was cold and humid; thus a dry and northerly winter was reckoned an unnatural season. Spring was reckoned unnatural when the heat and rain were excessive. See further Theophrast. de Caus. Plant. ii., 1.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
