forehead. She holds a lengthy scroll. Burne Jones designed
five angels with scrolls for the middle tier of the window.
In the actual window the angels' scrolls are inscribed with
verses from the twenty third psalm. One of 15 figures
designed for the 5 light East window at St Martin's Church,
Brampton. This figure was designed for the central tier of
the 2nd light. All the figures were designed specifically
for Brampton but were subsequently much repeated
