They have been harvesting wheat by the light of the moon. Some carry scythes that they have been using to cut the crop. When the wheat was ripe, everybody joined in to help get it cut and protected quickly before rain could damage it. The presence of several young children helps create a contented atmosphere, despite people\'s weariness;); 穢 Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums; American, out of copyright.
