Subject: RE: Folklore: Tricks for remembering the months
See Opie, The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes, where there's this parody by Tom Hood too.

Dirty days hath September,
April, June, and November,
From January up to May
The rain it raineth every day.
February hath twenty-eight alone,
And all the rest have thirty-one.
If any of them had two and thirty
They'd be just as wet and dirty.
