More on St. Margaret Clitherow

St Margaret Clitherow, the Pearl of York


St. Margaret Clitherow being pressed to death.


Pardon my second post on St. Margaret, but despite the pious imagery and writing style, some of the story is accurate, at the very least. And that someone can go so courageously to their deaths, hopeful in the promises of Christ, strikes me as the very image of a martyr. There you go.
