St. Margaret of Scotland

Just because I liked this picture of Margaret, queen and  homeschooling mother of eight, yet never to busy to wash a dirty beggar's feet:

This one by William Hole from her rescue after shipwreck is pretty, too.

I like how she saw through her son's equivocation when he tried to protect her from the news of her husband's and elder son's deaths: "I know how it is."  (from here.)
Reading is one form of escape. Running for your life is another.
