My Catholic mythology stopped with the "lives of hte Saints", and while Daphne's story has many parallels amongst the list of "Martyrs and Virgins", being Greek, and hence her followers were Orthodox, she never made it to the list.<br />.<br />Note how I avoided using the verb "rooted" in the story.<br />.<br />Cheers<br />DenisDenis Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031115992910569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-19885241399571856712012-08-14T04:51:36.777+10:002012-08-14T04:51:36.777+10:00That's a great description - in imagination I ...That's a great description - in imagination I can almost smell the perfume.
